Port Requirements

This document outlines the ports required by Enterprise Reporter.


	NOTE: Azure Active Directory is now Microsoft Entra ID.

Port Requirements

For the Enterprise Reporter components to communicate, some ports must be open.

•

The default port used for communication between the server and the consoles is 7738. This port is also used by the nodes to access the server. The port is configured during installation of the server, and is required in the connection dialog box for both the Configuration Manager and the Report Manager.

You can view the port currently in use on the Information page in the Configuration Manager, and the System Information tab in the Report Manager.

•

The default port used for communication from the Enterprise Reporter server to the nodes is port 7737. This port may be configured during installation.

The following figure shows the ports that are used by the various Enterprise Reporter components.

Figure 1. Ports used by Enterprise Reporter components.

*For more information on ports used when creating a discovery, see Table 1.

**For more information on ports used during data collections, see Table 2.

The following table shows the ports used by all of the Enterprise Reporter components.
