Never mind. An All Open rule is the one you create in the Quick Start
guide, right? I'm not going there...

Stupid question: Does the All Open rule open everything up? That doesn't
seem like a Good Thing. (How do you create it?)

Thanks for your help so far!

Hi Rob,

In that case, dump the firewall and put in a router :-)

Seriously, this app requires outbound access to all high number ports
for outbound access. In that case, I would just create an all open rule
and install the Firewall client on the user's computer. At least there
will be authentication, even though you won't have any outbound access
control.

An alternative would be ISA Server 2004, while allows you to create port
ranges for primary connections. This allows you to open the ephemeral
port range without opening the well-known ports.

HTH,
Tom

Apparently for outbound connections this application doesn't need any
specific ports open. Their tech support says it just picks a random
high-numbered port and attempts to make a connection over it.

What do I need to do to enable that? (Meanwhile, I'm trying to convince
this guy to just use Terminal Services.) Simply installing the firewall
client didn't help.

Thanks,
Rob

Hi Rob,

Do you  know what he means by "dynamic ports"? Is he talking about
secondary connections? If so, the Firewall client will be required and
the precise protocol behavior will have to be determined (or install the
Firewall client on the client machine and create an "all open" rule).

HTH,
Tom

http://www.ISAserver.org

Hello everyone--

I have an internal user who wants me to be sure an outbound protocol has
the ability to enable dynamic ports as need be. (The program he wants to
use is Timbuktu Remote). I seem to recall that those dynamic ports can
be opened by internal protocols (assuming they're allowed in the first
place). Is that right? How can I check that I have that function
enabled? What number do those dynamic ports start at?

Thanks,
Rob
