NOTE: For the XP128/XP1024/XP12000, Command View array management web clients communicate
directly with the array. Therefore, access through the firewall is needed for each
XP128/XP1024/XP12000 web client.
To support Command View access through a firewall, assuming that all inbound and outbound traffic is
blocked by default, you must allow access to the ports listed in Table 6 and Table 7.
Other supported firewall configurations
Alternate firewall case 1: Firewall running on Command View management station
Table 8 shows the necessary changes for a firewall running on the Command View management station,
