Port Requirements
A number of ports are used by various AP features and by the Xirrus
Management System (XMS). The Port Requirements table on page 59 lists ports
and the features that require them (XMS port requirements are included in the
table for your convenience). If you are using a feature, please make sure that the
ports that it requires are not blocked by firewalls or other policies, and that they
do not conflict with any other port assignments.
As an example, XMS port requirements are illustrated in Figure 26. XMS requires
ports 161, 162, and 443 to be passed between APs and the XMS server. Similarly,
port 9443 is required for communication between the XMS server and XMS
clients, and port 25 is typically used by the XMS server to access an SMTP server
to send email notifications.
