HP Serviceguard Version A.11.20 Release Notes, April 2011

is disabled (in inetd.conf), the network probing may be slower and under some conditions
error messages may be written to syslog.
Serviceguard also uses dynamic ports (typically in the range of 49152 - 65535) for some cluster
services. If you have adjusted the dynamic port range using ndd (1M) - network tuning, alter your
rules accordingly.
Ports Required by Serviceguard Manager
If you will be using Serviceguard Manager via HPSMH, make sure the following ports are open
in addition to the ports listed above:
• compaq-https 2381/tcp
• compaq-https 2381/udp
• cpq-wbem 2301/tcp
• cpq-wbem 2301/udp
In addition, if you are using DSAU consolidated logging and decide to use the TCP transport, HP
recommends you use TCP port 1775.
This port is configurable; if port 1775 is already being used by another application, configure
and open another free port when you configure the firewall.
System Firewalls
When using a system firewall such as HP-UX IPFilter with Serviceguard, you must leave open the
ports listed above and follow specific IPFilter rules required by Serviceguard; these are documented
in the latest version of the HP-UX IPFilter Administration Guide, available from http://www.hp.com/
go/hpux-security-docs —> HP-UX IPFilter Software.
