[Swift-user] Running swift from firewalled host

[Michael Wilde]

Will swift running on a host with limited inbound port connectivity be 
able to run jobs on a WS-GRAM site?

Based on the Globus firewall wiki page seems it should work (see below), 
but thought I would ask before trying it.

WS-GRAM:

Connections back to client (controllable ephemeral port to controllable 
ephemeral port) required if executable or data staged from client or 
output from job sent back to client.

^^^ I assume Swift does not do either of these?

Port 8443/tcp is default and configurable.

GirdFTP:

In the case of a single data channel, the connection is established from 
a controllable ephemeral port on the client to a controllable ephemeral 
port on the server.

^^^ Is this is what Swift does?
