Hi I would like to know if the router opens the needed ports immediately when creating a VPN server on it. I created a l2tp vpn server on my router and I never opened the needed ports so that makes me think that the router forwards the ports to iteself on the server creation. Can someone verify that. is there a place I can see all the opened ports (vpn forwarded and service ports for the omada fleet etc).

Thanks in advance.

Sure, as the VPN tunnel establish, the needed port forwarding rules will be done automatically. But for the list of port forwarding, I don't know where it can be checked, maybe no way for users to check for it.
