HP Enterprise File Services WAN Accelerator Commonly Optimized Ports, Commonly Excluded Ports

IMPORTANT: For two HP EFS WAN Accelerators to optimize traffic, ports 7800 and 7810, must be passed through firewall devices located between the pair of HP EFS WAN Accelerators. Also, SYN and SYN/ACK packets with the TCP option 76 must be passed through firewalls for autodiscovery to function properly. For the HP EFS WAN Accelerator Manager, port 22 must be passed through the firewall for it to function properly.

Commonly Optimized Ports

The HP EFS WAN Accelerator by default optimizes all ports. If you do not want the HP EFS WAN Accelerator to optimize all ports for an in-path or out-of path configuration, you can specify specific ports for optimization.

Although these ports can vary according to your requirements, the following ports are commonly optimized and monitored for in-path and out-of-path configurations:

‹21 (FTP)

‹49 (TACACS+)

‹80 (HTTP)

‹139 (CIFS:NETBIOS)

‹445 (CIFS:TCP)

‹1433 (SQL:TDS)

‹1812 (Radius)

‹7830 (MAPI)
