Micros POS Port Forwarding set up for back office computer

[Kibong]

My General Manager did not understand a request from another manager to reset the router. She meant to unplug and plug it back in... instead he pressed the reset button which cleared all the port forwarding information. When I called open table they reset everything for their service but Micros Technical support came out and cannot seem to tell me which port I need to forward to allow the back office computer to talk to both the network (4 workstations) and the outside internet so that I can run credit cards. I am just trying to find the information or where I need to go to figure out which ports I have to open. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Hi,
Yes. That is the ports used byb RES4

 

[Kibong]

So if my router doesn't have the option to enter a range for tcp do I just pick a number within that range?

 

[Kibong]

I also need to know what all the names would be for the ports to forward. We use rbs worldpay and I cant open every port in that range as opentable is using one of them. Does it matter which port I open for the back office Micros computer to be able to contact RBS worldpay?
Thanks for all your help so far!

Hi,

Just open the ports. You dont need to forward them. If you are on a different subnet you configure CAL with the server IP, in both NAME & IP, and it will map itself through, no problem. Micros itself uses HOSTS.xml, MDSHOSTS.xml, and c:\windows\system32\drivers\etc\hosts to communicate with clients & servers. Just open the ports

Micros payment Gateway port is usually 5003.
