500, 4500 UDP are the two ports which must opened to start neotiate IPSEC teunnel information
UDP port 500 and 4500 should be used
Ports UDP 500 and 4500.
Don't get confuse. UDP 500 is for ISAKMP for negotiating IKE phase1 and it is default port for ISAKMP, used when there is no NATing in path of VPN traffic.
While dealing with NATing device, the packet will get dropped if PAT is configured. So to allow that traffic to pass through NAT, every device should allow port UDP 4500.
Hope you got the difference.
We need to permit udp 500 for isakmp and ESP (ip protocol 50) for the actual tunnel.
If there is a nat device sitting in between the VPN endpoints then you need to permit udp 4500 for nat-t.
We need to permit udp 500 for isakmp and ESP (ip protocol 50) for the actual tunnel.
UDP 4500 and 500 should be allowed for IPsec VPN Tunnel.
To allow IPSec traffic to go through firewalls you should open UDP port and permit IP protocols numbers and on both inbound and outbound filters of firewall.
Port UDP is opened to permit Internet Security Assiciation and key Management Protocol (ISAKMP) through your firewall.
IP protocol ID should be permitted to allow Encapsulating Security protocol (ESP) traffic through firewall.
IP protocol should be permitted to allow Authentication Header(AH) traffic through firewall.
If NAT-T is in use additionally we have permit UDP port.
UDP port 500 and 4500.
IP port 50 and 51 for ESP and AH.
permit these port numbers to allow ipsec suite.
To make IPsc work through your firewalls, you should open UDP port 500 and permiot IP protocol numbers 50 and 51 on both inbound and out bound firewall filters.
