[THIN] Re: Citrix License Server - Firewall

I have found this article http://support.citrix.com/article/CTX103356
It mentions changing the citrix daemon port which all seems easy enough, but what i dont understand is how the connecting server (requesting the license) knows the new port to it is to converse on?? or does the LMGRD send this detail after the initial contact?
 
Thanks again!
James

Not sure about the AG, but the other products also connect on a high port.  This can be set statically on the license server.

Greetings List Champions!
 
Hopefully here is another easy one.
We are trying to get our Access Gateway 4.5.7 to talk to our inside citrix license server.
 
Setup:
Internet Firewall > Access Gateway > DMZ Firewall > License Server
 
Naively I assumed that it would be as easy as opening TCP port 27000 on Firewall2 into the license server? End of story..
We have currently just opened TCP 27000 from AG to License Server without any success thus far...
 
Is there a reverse rule that will need to be allowed for the return traffic from the license server to the AG?
 
Cheers
James
