Re: [FW-1] Checkpoint vs. Cisco VPN Client



As far as other vendors who can do this too, I've worked with the 3Com VPN client and a 3Com SuperStack firewall.  The VPN client was behind a firewall and was using NAT and it worked well...

Yeah they're doing something where they insert a UDP port # in the packets
so that the NAT device knows where to redirect the packet internally... of
course this is proprietary to Cisco and I haven't heard of others who work
through NAT devices!

I remember that a fellow consulting buddy of mine showing me that he
found Cisco's VPN client works behind a NAT whereas CP doesn't. (Of
course I haven't played too much with CP's client too much yet)
