The following tables list network ports that must be opened to manage inbound/outbound traffic.
Backup
From | To | Protocol | Port | Notes |
|---|---|---|---|---|
Veeam Backup Server / Guest Interaction Proxy (Enterprise and Enterprise Plus editions) | Microsoft SQL Server VM Guest OS | TCP, UDP | 135, 137 to 139, 445 | To deploy the runtime coordination process on a VM guest OS. |
TCP | 49152 to 65535 | The dynamic RPC range that is used by the runtime coordination process which is deployed on a VM guest OS for application-aware processing. | ||
TCP | 6167 | For Microsoft SQL Server transaction logs shipping Utilized by the runtime process on a VM guest OS from which transaction logs are being collected. | ||
Microsoft SQL Server VM Guest OS | Veeam Backup Server / Guest Interaction Proxy (Enterprise and Enterprise Plus editions) | TCP | 49152 to 65535 | The dynamic RPC range that is used by the runtime coordination process which is deployed on a VM guest OS for application-aware processing |
Log Shipping Server | TCP | 2500 to 5000 | For Microsoft SQL Server transaction logs shipping The default port range used by the Veeam data mover service for data transfer over the network. |
|
Configuring dynamic RPC range is not required when using default Microsoft Windows firewall settings as Veeam Backup & Replication automatically creates an associated firewall rule for the runtime process during installation. When using custom firewall settings or if application-aware processing fails with the RPC function call failed error, make sure to configure dynamic RPC ports manually. For more information, see this Microsoft article. |
Restore
From | To | Protocol | Port | Notes |
|---|---|---|---|---|
Veeam Backup Server / Standalone Console / Mount server associated with the backup repository (only when restoring from Enterprise Manager) | Target Server, Staging Server | TCP, UDP | 135, 445 | To deploy the runtime coordination process on a target guest OS. |
TCP | 49152 to 65535 | The dynamic RPC range that is used by the runtime coordination process which is deployed on a target guest OS. For more information, see this Microsoft article. | ||
TCP | 6160 | To communicate with the installer service. | ||
TCP | 1433, 1434 | To communicate with the Microsoft SQL server that is installed on a VM during the application-item restore. For more information, see this Microsoft article. | ||
UDP | 1434 | Utilized by the Microsoft SQL Server Browser service. For more information, see this Microsoft article. | ||
TCP | 1025 to 1034 | The default RPC range for the runtime component that is installed on a target or staging SQL server guest OS to support restore. Such a port range is only opened while application item restore is being performed. | ||
Target Server, Staging Server | Mount server associated with the backup repository | TCP | 3260 to 3270 | The port range that is opened by Veeam Backup & Replication to manage the iSCSI traffic during restore to the target VM. Such a port range is only opened while application item restore is being performed. For more information, see Mount Operations. |
