I appreciate the link Patrick, but the difference is the PIX has a dynamic address. I've read umpteen articles showing how to connect various static endpoints. I've also taken the same pix and successfully created an ipsec tunnel no problem using static ip on both ends.

I've searched the knowledgebase for days and am getting a little frustrated because there is nothing that explains how a pix getting it's host address via DHCP can be setup to dynamically connect to the ASG. The ASG is properly configured based on everything I've read.
I would be indebted if if anyone was able to provide additional insight. Plus, I'll send you TWO functioning pixes for your time (continental US only) if you can help me get this working. My company recently migrated from a pix network to an MPLS (so we have LOTS of pix 501s).

Thanks again for your help.
