Updating Firewall Ports

The firewall port exceptions must be updated from those set in Windows

support. Dell has created a script to set the necessary port exceptions
to enable a cluster environment.

To download the latest script, from the Dell Support website perform
the following steps:

1 Download the Dell PowerVault NX1950 Firewall script batch file

from the Dell Support website at support.dell.com.

2 Run the DSIW-Firewall-xx.yy.zz.bat file,

where xx.yy.zz is the version number.
