Ports
On backup infrastructure components, Veeam Backup & Replication automatically creates firewall rules for the required ports on Windows-based machines. If you are using a third-party firewall, these rules must be created manually. These rules allow components to communicate with each other.
Important |
Some Linux distributions also require firewall and security rules to be created manually. For details, see this Veeam KB article. |
You can find the full list of the ports in this section.
The following table describes network ports that must be opened to ensure proper communication of the backup server with backup infrastructure components.
