Re: [44net] ports / Protocoles needed to be opened for a gateway ?

Dear Marius So if I Understand correct regular home routers that have only TCP/UDP in their redirection rules dont know what to do with IPIP and will not pass it at all ?

(Please trim inclusions from previous messages) _______________________________________________ Just to make it clear: IPENCAP (4) is a Layer 4 IP protocol, like ICMP (1), TCP (6), UDP (17), GRE(47), OSPF(89), AXIP (93) and a lot of others, with the difference that it transports another L3 protocol (IP). It works on top of IP, which is the Layer 3 protocol on the internet. And there are other L3 protocols, like ARP, IPv6, AppleTalk DDP, IPX, IPSEC and others. IPENCAP has no port numbers. Those are specific for TCP and UDP, and that's it. You can not "simulate" it by port numbers. -
