Re: Setting up of EDI vendors - TCP/IP ports

We have the firewall assigning my outside IP address and 1 port open
for AS2 communications. Could the confusion be caused by the Wal-
Mart "for any port greater than 1023"? I've seen a few people
confused by that one but it just means choose any 1 port greater than
1023.
Hope this helps.
