Firewall rules

Interpreting the firewall information tables

The tables lists the ports that must be opened on a given firewall to provide to the subscribers and allow communication between the Lucent CM nodes and external services. If there are multiple firewalls, each of the firewalls must be configured to permit the appropriate traffic.

Row

 

Description

 

Rule

 

A number that is used to reference the rule. The numbers are only used in this guide for ease of reference. The numbers do not directly correspond to any firewall rule numbers as defined on a firewall network element.

 

Service

 

The name of the service that is offered for the corresponding destination port. Some firewalls use the service to filter packets, but is not necessary. It is included here for completeness.

 

Def. Port

 

The default network layer destination port number that the service listens on. The firewall uses the port to filter packets.

If needed, alternate ports can be used.

 

Network Protocol

 

The network layer protocol (for example, TCP, UDP) that the service is using. The firewall uses the protocol to filter packets.

 

From

 

The device name that is accessing the service.

 

To

 

The device name that is being accessed for the service. The IP address or range of addresses is used to represent the accessed entity. The firewall uses the IP address to filter packets.

 

Dir.

 

The direction of packets through the firewall.

 

Remarks

 

Contains other relevant information. Only those firewalls between the client accessing this service and the Lucent CM server need to be configured to permit this traffic. If there are no firewalls, this information is not used.
