Hi tom Thank you for your reply Do you mean that I need to publish isa server it self with the selected protocol udp 161 receive/send N.B We have several devices behind isa that we need to poll hanan -----Original Message----- From: Thomas W Shinder [mailto:tshinder@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx] Sent: Thursday, March 13, 2003 1:55 AM To: [ISAserver.org Discussion List] Subject: [isalist] RE: snmp question- please I need answer http://www.ISAserver.org Hi Hanan, It sounds like you need to create a Protocol Rule to allow outbound UDP 161 and a Server Publishing Rule to publish UDP 161, receive/send HTH, Tom Thomas W Shinder www.isaserver.org/shinder <http://www.isaserver.org/shinder> ISA Server and Beyond: http://tinyurl.com/1jq1 Configuring ISA Server: http://tinyurl.com/1llp -----Original Message----- From: hanan [mailto:nouran@xxxxxxxxx] Sent: Wednesday, March 12, 2003 2:39 AM To: [ISAserver.org Discussion List] Subject: [isalist] RE: snmp question- please I need answer http://www.ISAserver.org Hello Tom Thank you for your reply I will try to explain my problem: I am running an snmp monitor to check devices in a network behind a firewall ISA. SNMP traps seem to work ok (port 162). When, however, I try to poll an object (I have a VPN to the network by the way to access the internal addresses, but the devices must respond to the external address of the SNMP Monitor) I get response time out. When I check the network traffic I find that the responding device source is using UDP port 161 to send but seems to vary the destination UDP port (I am getting 3459, 1902, 2837, 2874, 1731, 1064, 1561, 1509, and some more) and I never find the querying device. How do I go about convincing a firewall to open all these ports for sending? When I see in the network monitor the port that was used, I create protocol rule for this port, and after that I can poll the device, but when I try again its stop responding I check again the network monitor and I find other port was used, I do the same for this new port and again I can poll the device and after stop and change the port again and so on I send my problem to the company how made this SNMP program and they answered me as the following: The destination port will always be UDP port 161 when coming from the SNMPc. You should configure your firewall to allow packets that have UDP port 161 in either the source or destination port. As to how to do this, consulting the company that made the firewall would probably be your best source of information Could you please explain to me what is that mean Is that mean that I need to allow port udp 161 for send and receive and that what I did also but still doesn't work, or there is other solution that I didn't understand from this email? Do you have any solution for this problem?
