Firewalls

If you are managing computers that cross enterprise firewalls, you must ensure that CA SRM components can communicate with each other. To do so, open the indicated ports on the firewall, and make any other changes noted.

• Between the Application Server and a Windows Managed Computer: the BOS port (as defined in BOS.INI, typically 1245) needs to be open in both directions.
• Between the proxy collector and the UNIX Managed Computer, make sure no other applications use the RSCD fixed port-7167.
  • One fixed port for the CA SRM UNIX Agent-7167.
    • Open this port on the firewall.
