About Communication Service

Each node in a Information Governance deployment runs a process called Communication Service. This service is responsible for all inter-node communication. Communication Service uses Secure Sockets Layer (SSL) to secure communication between the Information Governance nodes. The SSL keys are generated during installation.

By default, Communication Service connects through sever port 8383. This port must be visible to bi-directional HTTPS traffic between all Information Governance nodes. The service is also responsible for scheduling various tasks on a Information Governance node, which include, scheduling file system scans and uploading files to the Indexer worker node.
