Port Requirements
In the integrated solution, FlexNet Manager Suite / FlexNet Manager Platform, AdminStudio, App Portal, and Workflow Manager are required to communicate with each other, and that communication requires that certain ports are opened on firewalls between the products. This section serves as a reference for the ports that the products use, and it can be used as a basis for configuring firewall rules.

App Portal / App Broker Outbound Port Requirements
App Portal / App Broker has the following outbound port requirements.
Target Program |
Uses These Ports |
|||||||||
Active Directory |
See the following article in the Microsoft TechNet Library: Active Directory and Active Directory Domain Services Port Requirements |
|||||||||
Flexera Service Gateway |
Note:This is a one-time lookup of the FlexNet Manager Suite endpoint when the Flexera Service Gateway server is configured (or reconfigured) in App Portal. After that, the FlexNet Manager Suite endpoint is stored in the App Portal database, and no further lookups to the Flexera Service Gateway server are necessary under normal operating conditions. |

FlexNet Manager Suite |
|
|||||||||
System Center Configuration Manager (App Portal Web Service) |
Note:If using SCCM 2007, the option to refresh client policy requires additional ports between the App Portal/Broker server and the client for RPC/WMI. However, this is very rare, as it also requires the App Portal/Broker service account to have local admin permissions on every client, which typically isn't allowed/realistic in most customer environments. In SCCM 2012/ConfigMgr Current Branch, we take advantage of the client notification channel between the SCCM server and the client, so there is no port requirement for communication directly from App Portal/Broker to the client. |
|||||||||
SQL Server
|
SQL traffic over TCP 1433 (or customer-designated alternate port). |
|||||||||
External Systems such as ITSM, Orchestrator, etc. |
Usually HTTP (TCP 80) / HTTPS (TCP 443), but dictated by the external system, not App Portal/Broker. |
AdminStudio Outbound Port Requirements
AdminStudio has the following outbound port requirements.
