GOAL:
Are there any concerns when running ObjectStore across a firewall?
FACT(s) (Environment):
Category: Install/Config
All Operating Systems
ObjectStore
FIX:
There are 4 ports which ObjectStore uses for communication between processes:
Server to R6 Cache Manager (by default: 51031)
Client to Server (default: 51025)
Notification (default: 51050)
Client to Cache Manager port (default: 51041)
Of these only 2, the Server to Cache Manager port and the Client to Server port are generally affected by the firewall. The Notification port can also be affected but this port is only used when ObjectStore notifications are enabled. The Client to Cache Manager port is not affected because the client and cache manager reside on the same machine.
The firewall will need to enable communication across the ports used by ObjectStore.
