Clustering Considerations¶
The cluster contains multiple nodes which can be contained in separate firewalled networks.
Network ports need to be opened on firewalls to allow inter-node communication – these are described in more detail in the Platform Guide.
All communication between nodes is encrypted.
Node type |
Ports |
|---|---|
WebProxy |
22 (ssh & sftp), 80 (http), 161 & 162 (snmp), 443 & 8443 (https) |
Unified |
22 (ssh & sftp), 80 (http), 161 & 162 (snmp), 443 & 8443 (https), 27020 & 27030 (database) |
22/ssh is used for remote administration
80 and 443 is used for the web server
161 and 162 are used for sending and receiving snmp
8443 is used for inter-cluster communication
27020 and 27030 is used for database queries and replication
