Which Ports have to be open (on which side) in order to enable basic IPA functionality between IPA servers and clients. https://access.redhat.com/documentation/en-us/red_hat_enterprise_linux/7/html-single/linux_domain_identity_authentication_and_policy_guide/index#prereq-ports-list states 80 and 443 as well as 389 and 636 - despite the use of StartTLS.

So which ports in the list could probably be omitted? (if we do not need Kerberos functionality in that particular setup)

Kerberos is needed for users to be able to log in with their passwords: sssd authenticates users by obtaining a TGT using their credentials.

Kerberos is also needed to look up user/group information: sssd uses the host's identity to authenticate to the IPA LDAP server.

You could try configuring your clients to use the IPA-provided KDC proxy; Kerberos traffic would then go via https.
