A little clarification please. Below is an excerpt from the summary table of one of our TSM servers. As you can see below you have the ip address a client node used during it's last communications with the tsm server (backup). Now I'm assuming that on the right of the colon (:) is the port number that the client used during it's last communications? If that's the case, then will I have a problem if I closed down all unwanted ports on the client and tsm server systems except for port 1500 (tsm server) and port 1501 (tsm client)? Will that allow for proper backup and restoration communication?, or should I open these high ports as well such as "45914" for instance? If so what are those high port ranges. Also I don't see any client communicating over the 1501 port? or the server's 1500 port?. Would just 1500 and 1501 be sufficient? Please advise thanks!.
