Firewall configuration

Verba system components are using several network ports for communication. It is necessary to have these ports open and ensure that these ports are not blocked with e.g. firewalls.

In the Cisco solution RS must be able to access the Cisco UCM with JTAPI (2748, 2749, 2789 TCP) and HTTP/HTTPS (80/443).

In special cases, when the Verba Central Recorder Database Services (JTAPI) is not on an RS, TCP 11200 should be opened towards the mentioned JTAPI service.

If web-based Silent Monitoring is used with the Central Cisco Recorder service, please open the port 10003 on the Recording Servers.

On servers recording Lync phone systems

For Lync related firewall settings please refer to the Installing the Verba Skype for Business - Lync Filter page in the documentation.
