Procedure to setup the Manager is described below.
The Manager operation requires port numbers below to enable it to communicate with the Client or the Agent.
Service name | Port number / Protocol name | Sender | Receiver |
---|---|---|---|
sscruisera | 4917/tcp | Manager | Agent |
nfport | 23456/tcp | Client | Manager |
ssvscme | 7420/tcp | Manager | Virtualization switch |
Note
As well as the above, managers use port number 162/udp for receiving SNMP TRAP from managed devices, including agents.
The description of "ssvscme" service is required only when using virtual storage management. Please add the port number for virtual storage if necessary.
The services file is located in %SystemRoot%\system32\drivers\etc directory. The %SystemRoot% is the directory where the Windows operating system is installed.
OS | Full path name of services file (default) |
---|---|
Windows 2000 | C:\WINNT\system32\drivers\etc\services |
Windows Server 2003 | C:\Windows\system32\drivers\etc\services |
This information reflects the port number that was entered at the point of software installation, in "Registration of port number" window. Check that there are no errors in the information reflected here. When a port number is already in use, specify a vacant port number.

Note
For using Windows Server 2008:
The firewall is enabled in the default configuration of the operating system. For this reason, the settings must be configured so that the following ports, used by Manager to receive data, can pass through the firewall. If a port number is modified, the settings must be changed accordingly.
Service name | Port number / Protocol name |
---|---|
nfport | 23456/tcp |
snmptrap | 162/udp |
