Firewall considerations ZfH Access point to MGT server

Question

Hi there,
According to the TID10095278 the ZfH access point talks to the ZfH
Management server on port 2398. I presume the Access point does all the
initiating to the Management Server.
I know to can use HTTP encapsulation on port 80 but I've never got that to
work.
In the case where you want to locate an Access point on the public side of
a firewall and the Management Server on the private side. I presume an
inbond rule of 2398 needs to be allowed using TCP.
In the paragraph in the TID "In some cases the ZfH will send a UDP packet
to the Access Points over port 2398, but this is to optimize some things,
and will work correctly if this packet isn't delivered correctly." I'm
presuming this means from the handheld to the access point.
Does anyone have any thoughts on this?
Thanks,
Fred.
