Network port considerations

Last Updated : Mar 29, 2024 |

The main server, survivable remote servers, and each survivable core server use specific ports across a customer’s network for registration and translation distribution. You can modify the firewall settings from the command line using the firewall command with suser level access.

Note:

Use ports 80 and 443 to access the System Management Interface (SMI). Use the port 5022 for the secured System Access Terminal (SAT).

Use the information in the following table to determine the ports that must be open in the customer’s network in a survivable core server environment.
