Port requirements for communicating with the 7-Mode Transition Tool

The 7-Mode Transition Tool communicates with the 7-Mode system and the cluster over certain ports. You must ensure that these ports on the 7-Mode system and the cluster are open to allow communication with the 7-Mode Transition Tool.

Ports that must be open on the 7-Mode systems

The 7-Mode Transition Tool communicates with the 7-Mode systems by using HTTPS on port 443.

Ports that must be open on the cluster

The 7-Mode Transition Tool communicates with the cluster by using HTTPS on port 443.

Ports that must be open on the 7-Mode Transition Tool

Port 8444 of the 7-Mode Transition Tool must be open for the web interface.

To transition netgroups and CIFS local users and groups, the following requirements must be met:

Port 8088 of the 7-Mode Transition Tool must be available.
For an alternative to port 8088, you must change the port specified by the tool.http.port parameter in the transition-tool.conf file of the 7-Mode Transition Tool installation directory.

Note: You must restart the 7-Mode Transition Tool service after changing the port in the configuration file.
Each node in the cluster must have at least one data LIF configured for the target SVM.
All SVM data LIFs must be able to communicate with the 7-Mode Transition Tool port 8088 or the port specified by the tool.http.port parameter in the transition-tool.conf file.
Note: You must verify that firewalls do not block this traffic.
