NSP Kubernetes Platform Communications

Overview

The tables provided in this section identify the listening ports on a deployer node and on worker nodes for an NSP cluster deployment. (Note: worker nodes of a NSP cluster includes MDM only and PCE only nodes.) These ports must be accessible between the deployer and worker nodes within a NSP deployment. The SSH ports on all servers must be accessible by a system administrator for installation and maintenance functions.
