We are a little frustrated with settings for the VPN server.
These are the ports we have open on our internet facing inbound router firewall rules;
TCP:
443,992,1194, 8443
UDP:
1701,500,555
Additionally, we have allowed all connections in Windows 10 Firewall for the above ports and also a rule for the VPN Server Application as well (this is a default setting).
Yet our users always get a message regarding "Punch Through???" and when connecting to the VPN server it is slow and we periodically get disconnected.
We have ran External Internet Port checkers and they all report that none of our ports are open, but internal port scans and using telnet we can confirm connecting to each specific TCP ports.
We have tried turning of the WINDOWS firewall and still have the same issue.
We also setup a Ubuntu server with the same configuration and still same results.
Users can connect, just making sense to us.
Any Ideas???

Re: SE VPN Server Ports.
You need to FORWARD these ports. Also your ISP may not allow incoming connections.

Re: SE VPN Server Ports.
Sorry, when I say OPEN, I mean FORWARDED.
All our clients have static IP and nothing blocked.
We have rhe same issue with our internal VPN Server and we host Mail, Web and a host of other services and we know for sure nothing is blocked. Same thing with clients.
Any other ideas?

EDIT
"we host Mail, Web" - so forwarding TCP 443 to SE is not interfering with the web server?

Re: SE VPN Server Ports.
We have 4 statics, our web email etc are all on different servers, different front facing routers.
This is purely a SE issue, he is on a different ip and different router.
Even so, does not explain why this happens with clients, some of which only have ports/traffic sent to se server.

Is it the same server? What was the SE problem in that RDP case?
