GUI Managing the Base Product

In the following scenario, a firewall separates the GUI and the machine where the base product is running.

Architecture diagram: ARCserve Manager Console communicating with the ARCserve server component through a firewall.

On the machine where the base product is running, modify the Portsconfig.cfg file to contain the following entries:

ENABLE_CONFIGURABLE_PORTS=1
CASportmap            111
jobengine            6503
databaseengine       6504
tapeengine           6502	
rtcports             6505
cadiscovd            9000
caservd              9001
caauthd              9003
caqd                 9004
camediad             9005
cadbd                9006
reconnection         9010-9050
casdscsvctcp         41523
casdscsvcudp         41524

On the firewall, open these ports. These ports should allow incoming connections to the machine where the base product is running.

On the GUI machine, modify the Portsconfig.cfg file to contain the following entries:

ENABLE_CONFIGURABLE_PORTS=1
CASportmap            111    BaseproductMachinename
jobengine            6503    BaseproductMachinename
databaseengine       6504    BaseproductMachinename
tapeengine           6502    BaseproductMachinename
rtcports             6505    BaseproductMachinename
cadiscovd            9000    BaseproductMachinename
caservd              9001    BaseproductMachinename
caauthd              9003    BaseproductMachinename
casdscsvctcp         41523
casdscsvcudp         41524
