HI,
I've installed StorWatch on AIX and collecting data statistics works after we've opened port 80 and 443 in the firewall.
Problem is that the performance statistics collection apparently initiate connections on random source and destination ports (yes both!) and security restrictions makes it impossible to open ranges of ports.

Does anyone know how it can can connect to a random port each time and how we can make this work through the firewall?

Cheers
