RE: Telnet to home lab from my company with a firewall

I had a similar situation and I could solve it with a few route-maps, but
your case may be different.

My case is as follows:
We are spoke-A to our Headquarter which is a Hub. They control everything
that we do and every port that we want to access through a MS Proxy server.
I was unable to telnet to my toys at home. I could not use Outlook Web
Access to check my mails and I could not connect to my server at home.

I knew that Spoke-B has Internet access through a PIX firewall.
Although I did not have access to the Proxy server, I did have access to all
routers between me and the PIX Firewall of Spoke-B.

With a few route-maps that is specific to only my desktop's IP address, I
managed to bypass the Proxy server completely.

Be resourceful ( and careful ).

You will still need the appropriate ports open even if you use Web client.
