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.
The following ports are required by the cluster to communicate with the 7-Mode systems for SnapMirror replication:
-
10565/TCP
-
10566/TCP
-
10567/TCP
-
10568/TCP
-
10569/TCP
-
10670/TCP
Ports that must be open on the cluster
The 7-Mode Transition Tool communicates with the cluster by using HTTPS on port 443.
The following ports are required by the 7-Mode systems to communicate with the cluster for SnapMirror replication:
-
10565/TCP
-
10566/TCP
-
10567/TCP
-
10568/TCP
-
10569/TCP
-
10670/TCP
-
11105/TCP
Additionally, the 7-Mode Transition Tool performs a ping operation from the intercluster LIFs to the data copy IP address of the 7-Mode system to verify reachability.
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 thetransition-tool.conf
file of the 7-Mode Transition Tool installation directory.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 thetransition-tool.conf
file.You must verify that firewalls do not block this traffic.
