I am working with someone which has an IPSEC VPN Client (installed on a PC) and is trying to get through their firewall (Checkpoint/Nokia) to our VPN gateway. They said they have reviewed the Nokia/Checkpoint documentation and have concluded that it can't be done. I am wondering if this is actually true. I have very little experience with Checkpoint firewalls. I am asking if this can actually be done, and if anyone has experience in passing IPSEC, as a client, through a Checkpoint/Nokia firewall? If anyone has any insight to this, your response would be GREATLY appreciated. (We are sort of in a time crunch. I know, isn't everybody?!) Information from our VPN developer regarding passing IPSEC through a generic firewall. They had no info on Checkpoint specifically. I will be researching Checkpoint's site.: 1) I have been told that they need to statically map the VPN client addresses (the exposed addresses) as opposed to dynamically assigning them. 2) Open udp500, tcp389, tcp709 and protocols 50&51. Our VPN developer claims that these services need to be open in both directions (inbound and outbound) on their firewall. It's my understanding that they just need to be open in one direction (outbound, from them to us). - [To unsubscribe, send mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with "unsubscribe firewalls" in the body of the message.]
