Firewall configuration: Default ports
The following table describes the standard ports used by the Portal servers, the Data Collector servers, and any embedded third-party software products as part of a standard "out-of-the-box" installation.
Table: Components: Default Ports

Windows Hosts |
TCP/IP 1248 WMI 135 DCOM TCP/UDP > 1023 SMB TCP 445 |
ZooKeeper | 2181 Note: NetBackup IT Analytics uses standalone installation of single-node Apache ZooKeeper server. For secure communications, ZooKeeper single-node cluster must be protected from external traffic using network security such as firewall. This is remediated by ensuring that the ZooKeeper port (2181) is only accessible on the local host where NetBackup IT Analytics Portal/Data Collector is installed (that includes Apache ZooKeeper). |
