Need information about Server with Firewall active

Post by Gilali »

Hi everybody,

I have a question, a big question for me.

Our servers have firewall OFF but, due to test security, we must put them ON.

My question is : how I can continue to use Host Monitor without modifying all servers Firewall setting ???? Is it possible ?

Thanks for your help and your reply.

There are several options:
1. Allow any connection from HostMonitor server on each remote firewall.
2. Open specific ports on each remote firewall.
Please check the following article, to find out what port should be opened:

3. Open one TCP port on each remote firewall and use Passive RMA agents. All tests will be performed by RMA agent on remote system, test results will be sent back to HostMonitor.
4. Use active RMA agent. In such case you do not need to open incoming TCP port on remote firewall.

Please check the manual or visit our web site for more information at:
