SV: Cisco VPN Client Behind Firewall

Sorry, that website does not exist......instead I think you need to make
your solution more flexible, say with the Cisco SSL VPN Client for the vpn
3000 series, this software tunnels everything like you would be used to with
a Cisco client, but it uses SSL (tcp/443) as its crypto/transport with a
much better chance of getting a connection from behind most firewalls, since
this is open in most corporate environments, due to banking and e-trading
requirements.
If your vpn device is a ASA/PIX 7.0 you could enable tcp encapsulation on
port 443, but you would still need port 500 udp for key
exchange/negotiations. Ssl tunnel client will be supported on the asa in a
future release.

Emne: Re: Cisco VPN Client Behind Firewall

Thanks for all the information

I guess I should clarify. I have no issues passing it through my own
firewall and have done so, in our testing. Analysis of the traffic from our
VPN clients shows:

UDP 10000 {source and destination port}
UDP 500 {source and destination port}
UDP 62515
UDP 4500  {source and destination port}

The traffic is slightly different when we use iPass {3rd party connectivity
client} versus just the Cisco VPN.

The issue is when we have our personnel onsite at another company
{vendor/customer} and THEIR IT personnel want to know how to pass the
traffic through their XYZ firewall. Unfortunately, not all of the companies
we deal with have the sharpest personnel. 

I was hoping that there was a web site that I could point these people to
and say,"Here is a website that show you how you change your XYZ firewall to
allow the Cisco VPN" I have to be concerned that if I tell a company how to
modify their own security posture and they make a mistake that my company is
not liable.
