Hi all,

 

I try to open port 993 and 587 for emails (outlook) but I'm unable to make it working.

I had port in the service in TCP and in the policy rules internal traffic --> wan1 I add both services with NAT.

This policy rules already has another ports, this ports are open and work well.

 

Thanks a lot for your help.

Fabien

    Welcome to the forums.

     

    You will have to create a custom service. Call it 'Outlook'. In it, you will need two lines:

    Source port range:1-65535

    Destination port range: 993

    Service: TCP

     

    Source port range:1-65535

    Destination port range: 587

    Service: TCP

     

    Use this as the service in your policy and you should be good.

    Just want to comment that it is so common to setup services in firewall rules/VIPs and forget to set the source port range to 1-65535, though I think by default the fgt sets the source to that range - you may still want to verify that.
