On the other hand, there are many KCS applications/modules communicating with or through third-party
products (e.g. mail clients) where the TCP/UDP connectivity is not so straightforward (for example
TC/Report – MS SQL server, or H.323 FoIP/VoIP integration), where one well-known TCP or UDP port is
being used to establish the first connection through which further dynamic higher TCP or UDP ports to be
used are agreed. Such a communication setup is a challenge for every system administrator and his
firewall.
Following tables provides a summary which ports are being used with KCS products:
In the case of third-party connection, often a URL link is provided to appropriate the third-party product‟s
documentation as how to configure particular product to work across firewalls.
If the column Dest. Port does not contain a single port but a dynamic port range instead, it is
recommended to refer to the corresponding product‟s manual for details and/or third-party
documentation if the Url available in the column Purpose
Column “IPv6 enabled” contains the information since which KCS version particular connectivity is IPv6
enabled on Windows 2008, Windows 7 and later versions of Windows operating systems. Note that “N”
stands for not supported
Note: Column “Conf” declares whether the port or port range is configurable (Y) or not (N)
