443, 63006 HTTPS A secure data port used to
transfer information.
Alternate port is 63006.
Y Y
445 and
137/138/139
TCP and
UDP
These ports are needed to
connect to the remote
ADMIN$ share on target
servers (port 137 only if
you are using NetBIOS
naming service).
Y Y
60000–
60007
SSL Random ports are used in
this range to pass
messages back and forth
between the local and
remote systems through
SSL.
Y Y 80, 63000–
63005
HTTPS Used for passing files to the
target and retrieving the
logs through an internal
mini-HTTPS server. Uses
port 80 if it is available or a
random port between
63000 and 63005 if it is not
available. Allows updates of
the iLO firmware without
the need to access the host
server. This allows servers
running VMware or other
virtualization platforms to
update their iLO without the
need to reboot their server
or migrate their VMs to
other servers.
Y Y 50116 TCP This is port is used in CMS.
Y Y 51268 TCP This port is used in the
target machine.
Y Y 61000–
61007
These ports are used from
the target server back to
the system running HP
Smart Update Manager. The
same mechanism is used by
the remote access code as
the 60000 ports, with the
first trial port as 61000.
There is no guarantee that
the upper limit is 61007
when a conflict occurs. For
the case of IPv4 and only
