MES Firewall Exceptions List and Firewall Ports

The firewall ports and exception white list entries specific to MES applications are created during the MES DB/MW Communication component configuration. The default HTTPS, HTTP, and SQL Server firewall ports that are required by MES applications are opened by default on Windows or by installing SQL Server.

The default port numbers that MES uses are listed in the following table.

For a list of the firewall ports used by other AVEVA products with which MES works, refer to their documentation:
