Firewall rules for Netbotz, DCE & DCO

[DCIM_Support]

Hi all,

I'm in the process of moving my DCE & DCO servers into a firewall zone to allow future struxureon access. To do this I need to know exactly what incoming and outgoing ports are required for Netbotz, DCE & DCO? 

https://dcimsupport.apc.com/display/public/UADCE725/StruxureWare+Data+Center+Expert+Security 

The link above details which protocols and ports are needed however if does not tell me if the ports are incoming, outgoing or bidirectional.

Thanks in advance.

Hi Scott,

The FAQs for NetBotz and DCE may help you.

For most of the ports, they would be bi-directional. I will let someone else clarify for DCO.

Thank you both. 

Are you able to help me a use case (example) for the following ports? 

• 139 SMB 
• 111 NFS mount
• 2049 - NFS to NAS / SAN
• 445 CIFS to NAS

I don't believe my environment requires these ports to be opened. My environment is a physical DCE and virtual DCO. 

Thanks,

Scott

Hi Scott,

Typically these ports would need to be opened if you were using external network storage for DCE or DCO. This could be on a Windows or NFS Share or a NAS/SAN drive.

Hope this helps to clarify.
