Hello,

I am getting blocks from our Firewall for ports 20639, 11180, 16614, 44503 (as examples) when trying to install an agent.

I thought (obviously mistakenly) that the following are required.

Can someone point me to the new list for 2012R2 please?

Thx

John Bradshaw

• RPC endpoint mapper Port number: 135 Protocol: TCP/UDP
• *RPC/DCOM High ports (2000/2003 OS) Ports 1024-5000 Protocol: TCP/UDP
• *RPC/DCOM High ports (2008 OS) Ports 49152-65535 Protocol: TCP/UDP
• NetBIOS name service Port number: 137 Protocol: TCP/UDP
• NetBIOS session service Port number: 139 Protocol: TCP/UDP
• SMB over IP Port number: 445 Protocol: TCP
• MOM Channel Port number: 5723 Protocol: TCP/UDP 

Communication is established by Agent.  You need inbound port 5723 open on MS for regular monitoring after installation. 

All those other ports you have listed are granular port settings, but this can all be accomplished simply by enabling remote administration and file & print sharing on agent.  These are only required for setup to push installation files and run the setup package.

If you manually install SCOM agent, you does not require to open the above list ports
