Hi Steve,

I think as far as fw-1 is concerned the Nat-t & Udp encapsulation are a single 
option thats to be enabled on the Enforcement module -> VPN -> VPN Advanced -> 
Support Nat traversal Mechanism ( UDP encapsulation) & the default port is 2746.

If the vpnserver is not enabled as shown above i guess enabling the client is 
of no help & for esp exchange to happen it will require one-to-one nat. I 
believe the o/p below showing the source port for isakmp not changing from 500 
is coz you are viewing it during a one-to-one nat on your local firewall.

Regards,
Tinu Koshy.

Greetings,

I'm trying to use an AT&T supplied VPN client through our internal FW to
connect to an AT&T controlled VPN server.  The VPN is established but I
can't fully communicate unless I configure a one-to-one NAT.  The client is
configured to use UDP encapsulation, but it's not used by the client.
During the ISAKMP negotiation I see that FW-1 does not changed the source
port of the negotiations (UDP 500  <--> UDP 500).  I believe this is
confusing the remote VPN server (which I suspect is looking for a NAT-T type
translation) and it is not requesting UDP encapsulation.

Anyone see this before (I've had no luck in the archives.)

Does anyone know of a way to force FW-1 to perform source port translation
on ISAKMP negotiation?

Thanks,

-Steve S.
