Linksys VPN connected to Cisco 3000

Comment:
I have a linksys vpn router which is connecting to a Cisco 3000 series VPN concentrator. On my side it is 192.168.60.x internally and on the cisco's it is 192.168.101.x internally. There is a large 192.168.101.x network there that I need to be able to see from my workstation. However, even though the linksys is connected to the cisco I cannot even ping the internal ip of the cisco. NAT is NOT enabled on the cisco. It primarily serves a private network via point to point T1s.

I may be wrong, but as i remember, linksys doesnt have IPSEC standard vpn solutions....
When a vpn tunnel is correctly connected, you automaticaly see both LANs.

Linksys has a new VPN router which supports IPsec.
No, you do not automatically see both LANs. You only see what you have allowed for in the "remote side" settings. I have the VPN working correctly - almost - now, no thanks to customer support at Linksys. Every time I call there they say "Oh its for our new VPN router? I don't know anything about that product yet!"
However on the Cisco side there are 3 subnets that are all private - 10.0.0.0, 167.119.0.0, and 192.168.0.0. The linksys has no way to access them all. It only allows for an IP, a class C range, or a single subnet.
So I am still working on this and wishing we hadn't purchased 15 of these damn linksys routers for our clients.

I have a client who has a similar set up and his experience was that once the tunnel drops for rekeying after the scheduled interval, it needs reboot of the Linksys router to get the VPN up again. ANy clue?
