2.2 Conflicting software
The WinRoute host can be used as a workstation, however it is not recommended as user activity can affect the functionality of the operating system and WinRoute in a negative way.
WinRoute can be run with most of common applications. However, there are certain applications that should not be run at the same host as WinRoute for this could result in collisions.
Collision of low-level drivers
WinRoute Firewall may collide with applications that use
•Applications used for Internet connection, such as Microsoft Proxy Server and Microsoft Proxy Client, etc.
•Network firewalls — i.e. Microsoft ISA Server, CheckPoint
•Personal firewalls, such as Kerio Personal Firewall, Zone Alarm, Sygate Personal Firewall, Norton Personal Firewall, etc.
•Software designed to create virtual private networks (VPN) — i.e. software ap- plications developed by the following companies: CheckPoint, Cisco Systems, Nortel, etc. There are many such applications and their features vary from ven- dor to vendor.
Under proper circumstances, use of the VPN solution included in WinRoute is recommended (for details see chapter 21). Otherwise, we recommend you to test a particular VPN server or VPN client with WinRoute trial version or to contact our technical support (see chapter 25).
Note: VPN implementation included in Windows operating system (based on the PPTP protocol) is supported by WinRoute.
Port collision
Applications that use the same ports as the firewall cannot be run at the WinRoute host (or the configuration of the ports must be modified).
If all services are running, WinRoute uses the following ports:
•53/UDP — DNS Forwarder
•67/UDP — DHCP server
