Configuring the firewall on Windows
NOTE: For other operating systems, see the operating system documents on enabling or
disabling ports on the firewall.
Windows Firewall blocks most communication through unused IP ports. This prevents a server with the HPPP
Client installed from using the following four ports to communicate with the UPS Network Module:
• 4679/UDP (Client)
• 4680/UDP (Client)
• 5000/TCP (Alarms)
• 5001/TCP (Alarms)
To configure the Windows XP with Service Pack 2 Firewall to make an exception for ports 4679, 4680,
5000, and 5001:
1. Click Start, select Control Panel, and then double-click Network Connections. The Network Connections
screen appears.
2. Right-click the network connection where you are configuring the firewall, and then select Properties.
The Properties screen appears.
