Hello,

A secure remote question.

At what point does Secure Remote create a VPN encrypted tunnel, does it send
and receive encrypted data after "negotiate encryption and authentication
information" has been negotiated or only after the "Key Install has reached
its destination"

*-----------*                                           *-----------*    
| Client        |___<Bi-directional TCP, UDP and IP>___| FW-1   | 
|       |                Internet                       |       |
*-----------*                                   *-----------*

Secure remote Authentication process
SecuRemote requires the following ports and protocols to be allowed by any
intermediary device (routers, firewalls). 

1 - TCP port 256 between client and FW-1. This is only needed to fetch and
update the site information and will always originate from the SecuRemote
client  
2 - UDP port 259 to negotiate encryption and authentication information.
3 - UDP port 500 to negotiate encryption keys when ISAKMP is used. 
4 - IP Protocol 50 bi-directional when ISAKMP is used. (Key Install)

Best regards,

Mat.
