Catalog Protection system firewall

The RMC appliance has an HPE firewall running. Usually, CIFS servers are active on port 445 and NFS servers active on some predefined or default ports. Considering HPE StoreOnce NFS, HPE StoreOnce CIFS, and Windows CIFS server-based shares, HPE firewall permits outbound communication.

Port configurations for NFS at the server side are done in /etc/sysconfig/nfs. The NFS server by default binds itself to dynamically picked ports. Generally, users can also configure NFS to run on dedicated ports. For more information, see the table Port list classification.

The appliance firewall permits outbound traffic for the ports 111, 445, 662, 875, 892, 2049, 12206, 12204, 12205, 12202, 12203, 2020, 32803, and 32769.

  • MOUNTD_PORT=12204
  • RQUOTAD_PORT=12205
  • STATD_PORT=12202
  • STATD_OUTGOING_PORT=12203

Default NFS server ports

662, 875, 892,2020, 32803, 32769

The following are sample port configurations:

  • LOCKD_TCPPORT=32803
  • LOCKD_UDPPORT=32769
  • MOUNTD_PORT=892
