Currently we have firewall rules for the Cisco WiSM to communicate with
a Controller in the DMZ for a mobility anchor for our guest network. The
communication between the two devices is going through our checkpoint
firewall. The communication, I found, based on the SmartView Monitor
logs is EtherIP (Protocol 97). We have the rule on the firewall set for
"Any" because Cisco wasn't very explicit in the documentation, as to
what it needed.

I was wondering if anyone had any information on securing this across
the security gateway. I want to be able to just allow the minimum
necessary, so I was going to create a new Other service for IP Protocol
97, but since it only connects ONCE and stays connected I wonder if the
virtual session timeout will be reached (note, the traffic NEVER stops,
and this rule has been the highest user since we allowed the traffic in
the tens of Mbs).

We already have whichever TCP/UDP ports Cisco *did* mention in a
separate rule, and it seems like they're being used. I really just want
to secure the "Any" rule for just Protocol 97.
