Hi there,

I have a registered version of CISCO vpn client 4.6.00.0045. I just
installed a new router @ home using NAT and firewall and connect wih
ADSL. What rules should I add to the router to make an TCP/IPSEC
connection to TCP port 10000 to the VPN SERVER (@work)

I need the correct settings so I can have a stable connection to the
server.
Somtimes the connection is lost or not connected a 100% (or so it
seems). Or sometimes it seems that I cannot build a connection very
soon after I close a session (maybe because ports are locked/or still
in use?)

I have read on the internet that it might be the following ports, are
these
correct or do I need to add a couple more fore better connection?

NAT allow: from externel IF mer0 to local address 192.168.3.11
NAME PRO FROM TO LAN address
VPN_10000 TCP 10000 10000 192.168.3.11 mer0
VPN_4500 UDP 4500 4500 192.168.3.11 mer0
VPN_62515 UDP 62515 62515 192.168.3.11 mer0

I really hope someone can come up with the correct settings. So far the
internet is giving me different solutions and in it the meanwhile I
cannot connect to my work place.

regards, Seansan

TCP port 10000 was only used for a relatively short time. If your
VPN server is not stuck (or jammed) back in the old times, then what
you need, in both directions, is:

udp 500
udp 4500
ESP (IP protocol 50 -- this is an entire protocol, not a *port*)
