Port
Description
Comments
80/tcp
Always open for the web server.
This port is used for configuration of the device using a web browser.
This port is always open no matter how you configure the device.
If you want to use this method to configure the device from outside of a
firewall, then a firewall must allow incoming connections to this port.
If you want to use this method to configure the device from the outside
of a NAT, the NAT must be configured to forward to this port.
771/tcp
This port is open when any serial port is
configured for VCOM mode.
This port is used for communications with the VCOM device driver
installed on the computer. This port is open only if you configure any
serial port for VCOM mode.
If you want to use VCOM from outside of a firewall, then you must allow
incoming connections on this port.
If you want to use VCOM from outside of a NAT, then you must forward
to this port.
7000/tcp
Always open for serial server
configuration over TCP.
This port is used for configuration and firmware upgrade of the device
using the serial server manager. This port is always open no matter
how you configure the device.
If you want to configure the serial server from outside of a firewall using
the serial server manager, then the firewall must be configured to allow
incoming connections on 7000/tcp and allow packets addressed to
7000/udp to be received
Note: Configuring over 7000/udp is not supported.
