[Networker] firewall rule ports confirmed
2009-07-10 06:41:45
Could someone confirm that the only requirement for a firewall rule for a
backup of a networker client is port 7937-7941 in both directions.
We have a firewall rule configured and nsrports -s 7937-7941 command run on the
client. . I can even communicate to port 7937 in both directions using telnet
but the backup fails.
The firewall logs appear to show that ports other than 7937-7941 are being used
by the backup server.
The backup is unsuccessful unless i open the source ports in full in the
firewall rule.
Our firewall rule has two fields called Low and High under "source port" and
Low and High under "destination port". If i configure source port to have
defaults of 1 and 65535 and destination port to have 7937 and 7941 then the
backup is successful. But the source ports should also be 7937 - 7941
Details are:
The client is windows server 2003 networker 7.4.3
The networker server is windows 2003, networker 7.4.3
The firewall is Fortigate firewall 500A Mr6 Patch 3.0
Thanks for any advice.
