Hi all,

We have problem to get the ecs over http/https to work.
Our Cisco Pix firewall is stopping the traffic.
I have found this document:
http://www-912.ibm.com/s_dir/slkbase.NSF/a736d0e3fef96a6d86256dcc0077066c/70954a9b9a81da3f8625719a0049f3a2?OpenDocument

Do I need to open both the VPN Settings and HTTP Settings ports inbound and 
outbound in my firewall?

VPN Settings
IP filter rules
IP filter values
UDP inbound traffic filter rule
Allow port 4500 for VPN gateway addresses
UDP inbound traffic filter rule
Allow port 500 for VPN gateway addresses
UDP outbound traffic filter rule
Allow port 4500 for VPN gateway IP addresses
UDP outbound traffic filter rule
Allow port 500 for VPN gateway IP addresses
ESP inbound traffic filter rule
Allow ESP protocol (X'32') for VPN gateway IP addresses
ESP outbound traffic filter rule
Allow ESP protocol (X'32') for VPN gateway IP addresses

HTTP Settings
For those Universal Connection applications that use HTTP and HTTPs for a 
transport, the filter rules must be changed to allow connections to the IBM 
service destinations as follows:
IP filter rules
IP filter values
TCP inbound traffic filter rule
Allow port 80 for all service destination addresses
TCP inbound traffic filter rule
Allow port 443 for all service destination addresses
TCP outbound traffic filter rule
Allow port 80 for all service destination addresses
TCP outbound traffic filter rule
Allow port 443 for all service destination addresses



Mvh / Regards
