Ports
As Veeam Plug-in for Google Cloud is installed on the same machine where Veeam Backup & Replication runs, it uses the same ports as those described in the Veeam Backup & Replication User Guide, section Ports. In addition, Veeam Plug-in for Google Cloud also uses ports listed in the following table.
From | To | Protocol | Port | Description |

Workstation web browser | Backup appliance | TCP/HTTPS | 443 | Required to access the Web UI component from a user workstation. |
TCP/HTTPS | 13140 | Required to communicate with the REST API service running on the backup appliance. | ||
