D In case a VPN is not terminated by the BAT itself (e.g. a VPN Client in the
local area network, or BAT as Firewall in front of an additional VPN gate-
way), you'd have to allow IPSec and/or PPTP (for the "IPSec over PPTP"
of the VPN Client) ports additionally:
D For ISDN or V.110 dial-in (e.g. by HSCSD mobile phone) you have to al-
low the particular remote site (see also ’Configuration of remote stations’
→ page 366):
D For a network coupling you permit additionally the communication be-
tween the involved networks:
