(ASCEND) Pipeline 130 w/ Firewall



Hey all..

If this is a newbie question, flame away  :P

How do I check versions of the firewall/router and the big bad question:

Here is my network:

Internet, connected to the Router (ascend 130 -- 206.24.45.1) via a
CSU/DSU for MUXing, to a 100MB hub with 3 machines on it, 1 web server,
one Msproxy, one raptor firewall.  The latter 2 are multihomed, and
attached to the REAL internal network with is 10.*.*.*

Now..  here is the problem.  My Exchange box (10.0.0.5) has been having
issues ever since we installed the Ascend firewall.  It sends using IMC
just fine to some sites, and not at all to others.  Does anyone know if
some mail servers double check to see if the mail server on the net
exists first?  Basically, the Exchange Server reroutes throught the IMC
using mail.tcginc.com (206.24.45.56) -- now if some mail servers double
check (or try to) by using ping or traceroute to that IP or name, they
get nada, nothing, etc.

SO..

Is there any way to allow pings from anywhere to reach the 206.24.45.*
class C?  I have tried in the SAM to allow to:

206.24.45.1/32
206.24.45.0/32
and even *

With no luck.  Any help is appreciated.
