Avamar VM Proxy ports
Hi. I had a task to deploy Avamar VM proxy in a very restricted environment, where firewalls exist between VMs, appliances and backup systems. So I checked Avamar VMware PDF guide, and requested to open all the ports listed there. Once they were opened, I tried registering the new proxy, and it failed, returning an error, that it could not communicate to Avamar server on port 28001 🤦 This port was not listed in Avamar VMware guide, it was mentioned only briefly in general Avamar security document.
Currently I have opened the following ports:
Port | Source | Destination | Function |
28009 | Avamar MCS | Proxies | Access proxy logs |
30102-30109 | Avamar MCS | Proxies | avagent paging |
5489 | Deployment mgr | Proxies | CIM service |
443 | Proxies | ESXi hosts | vSphere API |
902 | Proxies | ESX hosts | VDDK |
111 | Proxies | DD | portmapper |
2049 | Proxies | DD | traffic |
2052 | Proxies | DD | traffic |
2051 | Proxies | DD | traffic |
27000 | Proxies | Avamar server | GSAN |
29000 | Proxies | Avamar server | GSAN |
30001 | Proxies | Avamar MCS | avagent to MCS |
Before proceeding with additional request for port 28001, I would like to know if there are any other "secret" ports. My firewall modification process takes a few weeks, so each additional change delays the deployment.
