1.6.2. Ports to be Allowed for Remote Administration
Ports that need to be allowed for remote administration are listed below:
·
Communication on TCP port number 80
For downloading AVG updates from the internet to the AVG Admin Server
UpdateProxy, it is necessary to permit outgoing communication for these
components on TCP port 80.
For successful connection between AVG Admin Server and stations, you also
need to allow other ports on your router/firewall/hub/VPN or other type of
relevant connection type, hardware or software:
·
TCP Port 4158
For basic communication between the AVG Admin Server and the AVG stations
and the AVG Admin console, you need to allow TCP port 4158 (predefined
by default).
This port can be changed in the AVG Admin Server configuration and in the
AVG User Interface on the station (via upper menu Tools/Advanced
Settings – Remote Administration).
·
TCP Port 6051
This port is used for direct messages from AVG Admin Server to the AVG
Station.
This port can be changed within the AVG User Interface on the station (via
upper menu Tools/Advanced Settings – Remote Administration group).
·
TCP Port 6054
This port is used for direct messages from the AVG Admin Server to the AVG
Admin Console. This port is not configurable. AVG Admin Console tries to open
this port automatically for listening, if the port is not available, it tries to open
subsequent ports (6055, 6066, …) until it successfully finds an available one.
