B.2 Firewall Requirements

Depending on the host system, exceptions must be added to the firewall rules for that host. The following are needed for successful operation of File Reporter tasks.

NOTE:Inbound firewall exceptions for File Reporter components installed on Windows are set up automatically during configuration of each component.

  • The Engine must remain permitted to make outbound connections.

  • The Engine must remain able to listen on port 3035.

    This is the default port choice that is presented during the installation and configuration.

  • AgentFS must be permitted to make outbound connections.

  • AgentFS must remain able to listen on TCP port 3037.

    This is the default port choice that is presented during the installation and configuration.

  • The Web Application hosted on IIS must be allowed to listen on TCP ports 80 and 443.

  • On each server hosting storage that you wish to collect quota via proxy, you must enable the Remote File Server Resource Manager Management - FSRM Service (RPC-In) firewall rule.

  • If File Content Analysis is enabled:

    • ManagerFC must remain permitted to make outbound connections.

    • AgentFC must remain permitted to make outbound connections.

    • RabbitMQ must remain permitted to make outbound connections.

    • RabbitMQ must remain permitted to listen on TCP port 15671 for the management interface.

      This is the default port that RabbitMQ is configured for with TLS.

    • RabbitMQ must remain permitted to listen on TCP port 5671.

      This is the default port that RabbitMQ is configured for with TLS.
