RHEV uses various network ports for management and other virtualization features. These ports must be open for Red Hat Enterprise Linux to function as a host with Red Hat Enterprise Virtualization. The list below covers ports and their usage by Red Hat Enterprise Virtualization:
- ICMP requests must be accepted. ICMP packets are used for network testing by the Red Hat Enterprise Virtualization Manager.
- Port 22 should be open for SSH access and the initial installation.
- Ports 80 or 443 (depending on the security settings on the Red Hat Enterprise Virtualization Manager) are used by the vdsm-reg service to communicate information about the host.
- Ports 5634 to 6166 are used for guest virtual machine console access.
- Ports 49152 to 49216 are used for migrations. Migration may use any port in this range depending on the number of concurrent migrations occurring.
- Port 54321 is used by default, by VDSM for management, storage and inter-host communication. This port can be modified.
