The following ACL example shows a firewall configuration when the proxy server gateway setting is 
enabled. As with the first example, the CTC workstation address is 192.168.10.10 and the ONS 15454 
address is 10.10.10.100. The firewall is attached to the GNE, so inbound is CTC to the GNE and 
outbound is from the GNE to CTC. CTC CORBA Standard constant is 683 and TCC CORBA Default is 
TCC Fixed (57790).

22.6 Open GNE
The ONS 15454 can communicate with non-ONS nodes that do not support Point-to-Point Protocol 
(PPP) vendor extensions or OSPF type 10 opaque link-state advertisements (LSA), both of which are 
necessary for automatic node and link discovery. An open GNE configuration allows a GCC-based 
network to function as an IP network for non-ONS nodes. 
To configure an open GNE network, you can provision GCC terminations to include a far-end, non-ONS 
node using either the default IP address of 0.0.0.0 or a specified IP address. You provision a far-end, 
non-ONS node by checking the “Far End is Foreign” check box during GCC creation. The default 0.0.0.0 
IP address allows the far-end, non-ONS node to identify itself with any IP address; if you set an IP 
address other than 0.0.0.0, a link is established only if the far-end node identifies itself with that IP 
address, providing an extra level of security. 
By default, the proxy server only allows connections to discovered ONS peers and the firewall blocks 
all IP traffic between the GCC network and LAN. You can, however, provision proxy tunnels to allow 
up to 12 additional destinations for SOCKS version 5 connections to non-ONS nodes. You can also 
provision firewall tunnels to allow up to 12 additional destinations for direct IP connectivity between the 
GCC network and LAN. Proxy and firewall tunnels include both a source and destination subnet. The 
connection must originate within the source subnet and terminate within the destination subnet before
