Not only binding to the same port you're connecting to, but also listening 
on that port as follows: (maybe that's what you were saying as well)

vic       UDP eolson-laptop-34:25000->ag-tech.mcs.anl.gov:* 
vic       UDP eolson-laptop-34:25001->ag-tech.mcs.anl.gov:25001 
vic       UDP eolson-laptop-34:25001->ag-tech.mcs.anl.gov:*
