SCCM (MECM)
To use SCCM (System Center Configuration Manager), you need to make sure certain ports are open on your network. Here are the ports you need to consider:
- DNS 53: This port is used to publish information and discover objects in SCCM.
- LDAP 389: SCCM uses this port for publishing information and discovering objects.
- SQL 4022: This port is required for the SQL Server Service Broker in SCCM.
- SQL 1433: SCCM uses this port for communication within the site between the SQL Server database engine and different Configuration Manager site system roles.
- WMI/RPC 135: This port is used for the RPC Endpoint Mapper in SCCM.
- SMB 445: SCCM requires this port for Server Message Block (SMB) communication.
By ensuring these ports are open, you can facilitate the proper functioning of SCCM.
SCOM
To use SCOM (System Center Operations Manager), you need to open specific ports for network and system communication.
Network Ports:
- Port 5723: This port should be open both inbound and outbound between the SCOM Management Server and the Gateway Server. It allows communication between these two servers.
By following these steps and opening the required ports, you can set up SCOM successfully.
ORCHESTRATOR:
When working with Orchestrator, you must open specific ports to ensure proper communication. Here are the ports you need to consider:
- TCP 5985 (HTTP) and 5986 (HTTPS): These ports are used for PowerShell Remoting in Orchestrator.
- Runbook Designer and Management Server: Ports 135 and the range 1024-65535 need to be open for communication.
- Management Server/Runbook Server and Web Service: Port 1433 is required for communication with the Orchestrator database.
- Client Browser: Port 81 is used for communication with the Orchestrator REST-based web service.
- Client Browser: Port 82 is used for communication with the Orchestration console.
- Windows File Sharing and Windows (Named) Pipes: UDP ports 37, 139, and TCP port 445 are used. Ports 137 and 139 are used for NetBIOS resolution, while port 445 is used for SMB communication. Additionally, TCP port 135 is used for RPC calls.
By opening these ports, you can ensure the smooth functioning of Orchestrator.
