Hi Patrice,

Normally you will terminate the vpn tunnel on the outside interface.  In
most setups you will configure NAT exemption between the inside interfaces
and the remote site so the ASA does not translate the addresses.

 Also worth mentioning is the default action of the ASA is to bypass the ACL
on the interface where the tunnel terminates.   Ex.  If you apply the crypto
map to the outside interface and you have an inbound access list on the
outside interface,  the VPN traffic will not be checked against the ACL.  It
will just be permitted.   This option can be disables and make the traffic
bound to the access list by using the "no sysopt connection permit-vpn"
