What are required port settings for OMIVV

NOTE When deploying the OMSA agent by using the Fix non-compliant vSphere hosts link available from the Compliance window in OMIVV, OMIVV starts the http client service and enables port 8080 on releases after ESXI 5.5 to download the OMSA VIB and install it. After the OMSA VIB installation is complete, the service automatically stops and the port is closed.

Use the following port settings for OMIVV:

Table 1. Virtual applianceThe following table specifies the different port numbers, port types, protocols, and their usage in a virtual appliance.
