Multicon Manual Rev. L

6.4 Firewall Configuration

In order for multiple Multicon controllers and the Nevion Configurator to work, a few select ports
must be open. These are described below.

Port 80 is required for communication between the Multicon Web interface and the Multicon con-
troller and must always be open.

Port 2836, 2837 and 2838 are required for communication between Multicon controllers that are
configured in the same system.

Port 3972 is required for communication between the Nevion Configurator and Multicon con-
trollers, control panels and routers in the system.

The Nevion Configurator uses broadcast to detect devices and requires that all devices in the sys-
tem are on the same IP sub-net.

Port 4381 is required for communication between Multicon controllers and control panels and
routers in the system.
