GOAL:
What ports need to be opened for Fathom Replication goes through firewall ?
GOAL:
How to configure firewall ports for Fathom Replication ?
GOAL:
Which ports the Replication is going to use?
FACT(s) (Environment):
All Supported Operating Systems
OpenEdge Replication
Fathom Replication
FIX:
Following ports / range of ports need to be open in order to allow Fathom Replication server and agent(s) communicate through the firewall
1) The following default range of ports specified in target.repl.properties has to be opened (this range can be decreased). A range is required so that Replication has the opportunity to choose another port if its first or second or third choice, etc ports are in use. If it can be guaranteed that a port specified in the range of listener-minport/listener-maxport is always available, it may be possible to just use one port within the ?range?. Replication uses 1 tcp/ip connection between the server and agent. If dsrutil is used to failover or failback it "may" open a connection the peer on the other end. Dsrutil monitor does not use tcp/ip at all.
listener-minport=4387
listener-maxport=4500
2) also the port for the agent(s) specified in source.repl.properties has to be opened
[control-agent.agent1]
.....
port=3008
