   Re: Can a router change a port?   
   26 Sep 04 16:42:00   
   
   From: vance.temeyer@nospam.pioneer.com   
      
   We are using Aventail.  It typically uses port 1080 and 443.  The problem is   
   that the client only talks on one port and the administrators of the system,   
   don't want to support multiple ports, so they have chosen 1080.   
      
   As far as the router goes, if there is a router that would do this port   
   address translation, we would buy it.  I just don't know which router might   
   actually do something like this.   
      
   Thanks,
