[c-nsp] SSH through ASA to switch inside

This only works through a VPN, and only with "management access inside" enabled on the inside interface.

This message originates from outside of your organisation.

Good day all, not sure if this is the right list for a question such as this, but my google searching has hit a dead end.

What I'm try to accomplish is ssh from the outside world, through an ASA, to a switch for remote access to the switch for maintenance and such

SSH is enable don the switch.  and that works fin independently while inside.
SSH is enabled on the ASA, locked down to a few source IP's, and that works fine independently.

What I have configured in on the ASA is:

Outside interface =  outside
Inside interface =  OWNER-INSIDE

!
interface GigabitEthernet1/1
 nameif outside
 security-level 0
 ip address xx.xx.xx.xx 255.255.255.252
!
interface GigabitEthernet1/2
 description INSIDE OWNER UNRESTRICTED ACCESS  nameif OWNER-INSIDE  security-level 100  ip address 10.255.255.253 255.255.255.248 !

access-list ACL_Outside_to_Inside remark SSH Connections to specific network objects access-list ACL_Outside_to_Inside extended permit tcp any object-group SSH_CLIENTS eq ssh access-list ACL_Outside_to_Inside extended deny ip any any

access-group ACL_Outside_to_Inside in interface outside

access-list inside_access_out extended permit ip any any

When I use the ASDM Packet Tracer to test, using the settings, it shows the packet traversing successfully.  however, when I ssh to IP port 22001, it times out.

Hit counters on the access-list do not increase (the did once, but not sure where that was in my "testing") access-list ACL_Outside_to_Inside line 2 extended permit tcp any object-group SSH_CLIENTS eq ssh (hitcnt=3) 0xa4d89883

  access-list ACL_Outside_to_Inside line 2 extended permit tcp any host
10.255.255.250 eq ssh (hitcnt=0) 0x30601a85

Hit counters on the nat policies do not increase.
1 (outside) to (OWNER-INSIDE) source static SW3 interface  service tcp ssh
22003
    translate_hits = 0, untranslate_hits = 0
2 (outside) to (OWNER-INSIDE) source static SW2 interface  service tcp ssh
22002
    translate_hits = 0, untranslate_hits = 0
3 (outside) to (OWNER-INSIDE) source static SW1 interface  service tcp ssh
22001
    translate_hits = 0, untranslate_hits = 0

Might be a bit over my head, trying to config the ASA for a new customer.

Any ideas as to what I might be doing wrong?  or need the entire config?

Thanks,
Scott
