I am using the 3COM Office Connect Firewall 25 for network protection.  I 
can set a rule to allow H.323 and T.120 traffic through, but it still fails 
with Netmeeting.  The problem is the dyamically assigned UDP ports that 
Netmeeting uses for audio.  Unfortunately there is no way that I can find to 
pass a large block of port numbers.

As a temporary fix I am running dual NIC's in my computers with one of them 
downstream of the firewall and the other connected directly to the Internet 
router.  Netmeeting traffic is handled though the WAN side NIC.  I am 
running BlackIce to protect the computers that have connections upstream of 
the firewall.  This all works fine 99% of the time, but there are two random 
errors that pop up during Netmeeting sessions:

1. The firewall will occassionally report "IP Spoofing" listing the WAN side 
NIC as the source.
2. BlackIce will occassionally report "ICMP flood" listing the IP of the 
person I am talking to as the source.

Any idea why this might be happening?
