Default Port Assignments

The CA User Activity Reporting Module server is configured by default to listen on port 5250, and on ports 80 and 443 using the HTTPS protocol. CA User Activity Reporting Module processes and daemons do not run under the root account, so they cannot open ports below port 1024. As a result, the installation automatically creates a redirection (through iptables) to port 5250 for incoming user interface requests on ports 80 and 443.

The CA User Activity Reporting Module server's local operating system syslog daemon is not configured because CA User Activity Reporting Module uses its self-monitoring events to track system status. You can see other local events and report on actions taken on the local CA User Activity Reporting Module server using self-monitoring events.

A list of ports used by the CA User Activity Reporting Module environment follows:

Port	Component	Description
53	CA User Activity Reporting Module server	TCP/UDP port that must be available for DNS communications to resolve host names to IP addresses of servers such as CA User Activity Reporting Module servers, the remote CA EEM server, if configured, and the NTP server if you selected NTP time synchronization at install time. DNS communications is not needed if you map host names to IP addresses in the local /etc/hosts file.
80	CA User Activity Reporting Module server	TCP communications with CA User Activity Reporting Module server user interface over HTTPS; automatically redirected to port 5250.
111	Portmapper (SAPI)	Audit client communications with PortMapper process to receive dynamic port assignments.
443	CA User Activity Reporting Module server	TCP communications with CA User Activity Reporting Module server user interface over HTTPS; automatically redirected to port 5250.
514	Syslog	Default UDP syslog listening port; this port value is configurable. For the default agent to run as a non-root user, the default port is set to 40514, and the installation applies a firewall rule to the CA User Activity Reporting Module server.
1468	Syslog	Default TCP syslog listening port; this port value is configurable.
2123	DXadmin	CA Directory LDAP DXadmin port, if you are using a CA EEM server on the same physical server as the CA User Activity Reporting Module server (the management server).
5250	CA User Activity Reporting Module server	TCP communications with the CA User Activity Reporting Module server user interface using iGateway. TCP communications between: CA User Activity Reporting Module server and CA EEM server Federated CA User Activity Reporting Module servers Agent and CA User Activity Reporting Module server for status updates
6789	Agent	Agent command and control listening port. Note: If you do not allow outbound traffic, you will need to open this port to enable proper operations.
17001	Agent	TPC port for secure agent to CA User Activity Reporting Module server communications; this port value is configurable. Note: If you do not allow outbound traffic, you will need to open this port to enable proper operations.
17002	ODBC/JDBC	Default TCP port used for communications between ODBC or JDBC driver and the CA User Activity Reporting Module event log store.
17003	Agent	TCP port used for communications by the Qpid message bus for r12.1 agents.
17200	Dispatcher SME Listener	TCP port used for the Dispatcher service on the agent localhost to listen for self monitoring events between agent processes.
17201	Dispatcher Event Listener	TCP port used for the Dispatcher service on the agent localhost to listen for events from client connectors.
random	SAPI	UDP ports used for event collection assigned by the port mapper; you can also configure the SAPI router and collector to use any fixed port value above 1024.
