Firewall Ports Needed for Process Monitor

Metastorm

The information in this article applies to:

Product: MIM and PM4Data
Version: 8.x - 8.1.8
Platform: Open Systems

Issue

• The Process Monitor relies on JBoss as an application server. In order for the Process Monitor to communicate with nodes, some ports need to be opened in the firewall.

Resolution

• The Process Monitor requires a single port to be opened through the firewall to the Enterprise Server -port 10010 HTTP listener port for the GUI.

• Depending on your organization's policies, the following three ports for each node may need to be opened if you plan to manage with the Process Monitor.

  1. 10012 - JBoss JNDI (inbound)
  2. 10013 - JBoss RMI (inbound)
  3. 10014 - JBoss Invoker RMI (inbound)

  Note: If the following default ports were changed using xmportconfig.xms, translate the port numbers accordingly: 10010, 10011, 10012, 10013, 10014, 10015.

• The other ports listed in the product documentation are used internally (locally) by the Process Monitor and do not have to be defined in the firewall/router.
