Remote VPN Requirements
To access the JSC-TSC from a University or a Corporate Intranet, the IPSEC port will need to be configured by the University or the Corporate Intranet's System Administrator. Please verify that the following ports are allowed : Ports TCP 264, IP 50 & 51 and UDP 500.
The remote user will be unable to access JSC-TSC through VPN if the router does not allow the IPSEC ports.
IMPORTANT NOTICE: In order to establish a Secured VPN using Checkpoint's SecuRemote software, the following protocols and ports will have to be opened through your firewalls and filter-lists to allow communication between your client and the JSC-TSC firewall.
Note: Please check with your Network or System Administrator to make sure that the following protocols are allowed through your local firewall.
IPSEC Protocols:
** UDP 500 bi-directional- IKE For key exchange
** IP 50 and 51 bi-directional- Encapsulating Security Protocol (ESP) For encryption of data
** TCP 264 outbound - Updated Topology Fetch which connects to our Firewall when needed.
