Pix Firewall

[retrofade]

Hey, I work in an IT department of a Medical Group, and we have a PIX firewall and we're trying to figure out how to block streaming media, such as online radio stations, so were not wasting bandwidth. Does anyone know how this would be done, I know there is a way, but I'm not sure how. Thanks.

Block:

TCP port 7070 for connecting to pre-G2 RealServers
TCP port 554 and 7070 for connecting to G2 RealServers

UDP ports 6970 - 7170 (inclusive) for incoming traffic only

That info is taken from the REAL.com home page, in the enabling section then with reverse logic to disable.

If that doesn't work I recommend going the real player site and doing everything the mention to get to work backwards so things don't work.

Same goes for Quicktime and media player.

More for quicktime (from their site)

"Open port 554 for RTSP/TCP data.
Open ports 6970 through 6999 (inclusive) for RTP/UDP data. " to allow, so to not allow close.

Unfortunately you can use port 80 for QTSS so unless you want to keep people off http completely don't disable 80. (real can do this too i think)

I don't know about WMP[edit--->found site Article Q189416]
