Opening tcp port 443, on a Cisco 515e

Nov 29, 2004 1 Replies

Hi All, I've a Cisco 515e and I need to open outgoing port TCP 443. The problem is I havent played around much with the 515 and not sure how to go about it. Is it as simple as being on conf t and typing fixup protocal tcp 443? Or is there more to opening up this port for outgoing traffic? An example would be great with reason to why I need this line. Any help or pointers would be great.

No, that's not the way to open tcp port 443 for outgoing traffic. You have a rather new Pix model (515E) so you must have a newer operating system (6.X), but it is still possible that somebody has configured the Pix using conduits instead of access-lists.

If you want to have detailed instructions you should post your configuration (munge passwords and other information you don't want to show to everybody).

Please note that I have set the followups to comp.dcom.sys.cisco because the Pix knowledge is there (well, actually I think that the Pix knowledge lives in Canada, but that's an other story).
