necessary.
Note To enable the firewall rules on ftSys Management Appliance, rebooting ftSys Management

1. Open the firewall configuration file (/etc/sysconfig/iptables) on ftSys Management Appliance.
# vi /etc/sysconfig/iptables
2. Change the firewall rules and save the file.
3. Reboot ftSys Management Appliance to enable the rules.
Reboot the guest OS from the vSphere Client or run the following command on the console.
# shutdown -r now
4. After rebooting ftSys Management Appliance, run the following command to make sure that the
system is running successfully.
# /opt/ft/sbin/ft-verify
5. If successful, [PASS] appears in the output.
