[AG-TECH] Ports used in AG

[Osland, CD (Chris)]

This would be invaluable as core documentation.  We didn't have
any problems with VIC and RAT ports, but things like VNC caused
us great grief - I think in the end we found that it uses 5700 +
the screen number of the application, but I'd have to check.

Cheers

Chris Osland

I'm faced with having to detail the ports used in AG work to our network
folks who have decided that our present external connection, which is
getting upgraded, needs a port filter applied.  I BELIEVE, but I haven't
verified, that this box is smart enough that we don't have to detail all
the ports from which we will be originating transmissions, but incoming
ports that don't correspond to outgoing ports are an unknown for me.  Is
there a document, or some collected wisdom, that I can tap?

Unfortunately, I don't think that 'leave all the ports open' is going to
be accepted as a valid answer.

Thanks!!
