Hi,

At its default setting ASA allows all traffic to bypass interface ACLs / Access Lists for connections that are coming through VPN connections.

Though in your case its really hard to say with such little information to go by.

As Jouni said, you don't have to open anything if we're talking about traffic, going through vpn-connection, as long as your configuration doesn't include no sysopt connection permit-vpn. By default, all vpn-traffic is allowed throug and not matched against interfaces ACLs.

To controll traffic through the vpn-tunnel you've got two options:

-enter no sysopt connection permit-vpn - interface acl will be used to filter vpn-traffic;

-apply vpn-filter to the group-policy, used for connecting endpoints.

I think I am just explaining it incorrectly which is my fault and I apologize!!....

the instructions given to me are as follows:

request port 7799 be opened for 192.X.X.X and 172.X.X.X used to access databases on tblshp3 over the VPN for JLG
