To connect the management client and the SVP through a firewall, configure the firewall so that the TCP/IP port for the protocol you use becomes available.

When attaching Device Manager - Storage Navigator to multiple storage systems, the installer must log in to the SVP of each storage system using separate Device Manager - Storage Navigator sessions and separate web browser instances.

The following table shows the type of the protocol and the port used. When accessing the management GUI directly from the SVP without using the management client, it is not necessary to register ports of protocols other than RMI, SLP, and SMI-S in the table below.

CAUTION:
Do not set firewall for ICMP configuration. If you do, alert notifications might not occur. To disable the settings, contact the administrator who manages the firewall.
Note: If you change the port numbers used by the SVP, the firewall is set with the changed port numbers.
