transmit AJP13-forwarded Web traffic
to View Connection Server instances.
Security server JMS 4001 View Connection Server Security servers use port 4001 to
transmit Java Message Service (JMS)
traffic to View Connection Server
instances.
Security server RDP 3389 View desktop Security servers use port 3389 to
transmit RDP traffic to View desktops.

32111 is used alongside RDP. For MMR,
TCP port 9427 is used alongside RDP.
TCP Ports for View Connection Server Intercommunication
Groups of View Connection Server instances use additional TCP ports to communicate with each other. For
example, View Connection Server instances use port 4100 to transmit JMS inter-router (JMSIR) traffic to each
other. Firewalls are generally not used between the View Connection Server instances in a group.
Understanding VMware View Communications Protocols
VMware View components exchange messages by using several different protocols.
Figure 5-5 illustrates the protocols that each component uses for communication when a security server is not
configured.
