Re: Port Application Mapping

Hi,

Port-map adds additional port #s to the IOS defaults
for telnet, ftp, etc. It doesn't remap traffic to
other ports.

For example, the 'telnet' keyword by default will only
look at traffic on port 23. If you add a port-map for
telnet on port 8000, now when you use the keyword
'telnet' it will look at port 23 and 8000.

This is useful for sites with multiple ACLs. For
example, they want 'http' to cover ports 80, 8080,
8000, etc they could set up a port-maps for http and
have 1 line in a access-list instead of 4.

I hope this helps. I've played with it in the past and
this is the way it works. Also, it is only in IPSec
feature sets but that might have changed.
