Hi,

I'm configuring a PIX and I get this warning message each time I boot :

..outside interface address added to PAT pool
WARNING: access-list protocol or port will not be used

It's probably related to these lines in my conf :

global (outside) 1 interface
nat (inside) 0 access-list nonat
nat (inside) 1 0.0.0.0 0.0.0.0 0 0

Could you please help me to understand why I have this warning ?

Thank you,
Akut

I would suspect it is related to

nat (inside) 0 access-list nonat

Does the access-list named nonat happen to try to deal with something
other than tcp or udp? For example, does it have some icmp or gre?

yes :
access-list nonat permit icmp ...
