Host-Based Firewalls
If your Nessus server is configured with a local firewall such as the default Windows firewall, or any other installed third-
party firewall software, it is required that connections be opened from SecurityCenter’s IP address. By default, TCP port
8834 is used to communicate with SecurityCenter. If a connection is not currently allowed for TCP port 8834 an exception
will have to be made in the firewall to allow access.
