Do I need to open any other ports?

[KSteele6]

I have a Java app that does a logon to the Enterprise XI system like this:

sessionMgr.logon(
"Administrator",
"",
"TRAIN:6400",
"secEnterprise")

If my app runs on the same box as the Enterprise XI servers, then I can connect no problem.

However when I deploy my app to another box, the logon fails. I get a timeout message. I've opened port 6400 on the machine with the XI servers but the logon still fails.

So are there other ports that need to be opened up? Am I missing something simple here? Thanks!

Hi,
By default, BOE XI servers use randomly assigned ports between 6401 and 6410 ( 6400 is the default for the CMS) -open them all or use the -port and/or -requestport options on each server's command line (for those servers needed) and specify a port in that range ( each must be unique)..
Look in the administrator's guide for info about ports and firewalls...

Thanks!!!

First I opened the ports from 6400-6410. However the login still failed.

Then I went into the Central Configuration Manager and added the following arguments to the command for the Central Management Server. After that I was able to connect which was great.

-port TRAIN:6400 -requestport 6485

I still cannot view a report when I deploy the app to a box that's different than the one running the XI servers. I've been looking thru the Administrator's Guide to try and resolve this. I've asked our sys admins to configure the box where the app is deployed to allow all connections innitiated from the box where the XI servers are running. Any ideas?
