Umm... i had o contact to version 4.5 yet,  but with 3.4x i would recommend 
the following:

On the Client you will have to put the following in the bp.conf (or registry):
CLIENT_PORT_WINDOW *firstport* *lastport*

On the Servers you add:
CLIENT_PORT_WINDOW = *firstport* *lastport*
SERVER_PORT_WINDOW = *firstport* *lastport*

Where *firstport* and *lastport* define a range of highports fpr the data 
streams. I have been told to calculate 2 ports for each stream. 


Also you will need to allow the clients to use high ports by doing this (on 
Unix):
/usr/openv/netbackup/bin/admincmd/bpclient -client *clientname* -add 
-connect_nr_port 1


A short summary for the firewall rules in thsi setup:

Client needs to contact server on port 13720 TCP (bprd)
Server needs to contact client on port 13782 TCP (bpcd)
Both need to contact each other in the port-range TCP you defined.
