Hi, in the following article Port Requirements for Commvault I can read the following:
Target Machine to Access | Target Ports | Accessed From | Feature or Purpose |
All | 8403 (configurable) | All other network peers | All data and control traffic |
All | 8400 (Default CVD port) (configurable) | All other network peers | Required to be open on MediaAgents for faster data traffic |
Questions
- In this context, what does it mean “All” for “Target Machine to Access”? Does it mean All Commvault servers, i.e., Commserve, Media Agents, VSA. It should be more precise
- Port 8403 corresponds to “All data and control traffic”. I remember that in the past, we had to open Commvault data ports in the range 8600-8650. Does it mean that now only one port is required for all types of backups?
- Don’t we need to open the ports 8400 & 8403 from all clients to all Commvault servers on both directions?
Clearly, the documentation should be more accurate.
Thanks
Regards.
