Configuring Internet Explorer firewall settings
Some operating systems, including Windows XP with Service Pack 2 and Windows Server 2003 SBS,
implement a firewall that prevents browsers from accessing the ports required for the VCRM access. To
resolve this issue, you must configure the firewall with exceptions to allow browsers to access the ports used
by HP Systems Insight Manager and VCRM.
NOTE:
For Windows XP with Service Pack 2, this configuration leaves the default SP2 security enhancements
intact, but allows traffic over the ports. These ports are required for the VCRM to run. The secure and insecure
ports must be added to enable proper communication with your browser.
To configure the firewall:
1.
Select Start
→Settings Control Panel.
2.
Double-click Windows Firewall to configure the firewall settings.
3.
Select Exceptions.
4.
Click Add Port.
You must enter the product name and the port number.
