I don't think you need tcp 57... only UDP 500, and IP protocol 50 and/or 51
(depending on if you are using ESP (I think that is the default setting with
Nortel) or AH)

Hello All,

Thanks for your inputs on allowing Nortel VPN. Basically the simplified
version would be :

Host in Extranet -> Firewall -> Internet -> Nortel VPN Gateway

Now, we need to have a correct ports open on Firewall.  From the inputs I've
received so far :
a. UDP 500
b. IP Protocol 50
c. TCP 57

Did I miss something ?

Regards,
Leonard

Assuming your clients are trying to connect to Contivity box
outside the
firewall, you probably need to map global ip to local ip for
whomever trying
to connect as well as allowing inbound ESP.
