HP Smart Update Manager 5.3.5 Release Notes (Ed. 3)

Table 1 HP SUM Windows network ports (continued)
DescriptionPorts
remotely to a remote Windows file share on the node server, you have the correct
ports open.
Default for some internal communications. This port listens on the remote side if
there is no conflict. If a conflict occurs, the next available port is used.
Port 62286
Updates are passed to the target and retrieved through an internal secure web
server that uses port 80 if it is available. If it is not available, the Web server
Ports 80 or 63000–63005
uses the first available port in the range of 60000-63005. This allows iLO and
VC firmware updates without having to access the host server. It also allows the
servers to run VMware or other virtualization platforms to update the iLO firmware
without requiring a server reboot or a migration of the virtual machines to other
servers.
Remote HP Integrity iLO and Superdome 2 updates require these ports to be
open on systems for network traffic in both directions to transfer firmware files.
NOTE: HP SUM attempts to determine if a server running HP SUM also hosts
a web server. In some cases, HP SUM cannot detect an existing web server and
attempts to use port 80. If this occurs, installations that are using HP SUM will
fail. If failure occurs, you can move HP SUM to another server or workstation
that is not already running a web server. You can also disable the web server
until HP SUM installations are complete.
You can use these FTP ports to perform switch updates.Ports 21 or 63006–63010

Special network configuration note for HP Integrity servers
• HP Integrity servers have management network and production interfaces. These are usually kept
on separate subnets in an installation. To perform full remote administration of the server, access
is required for both networks. If you keep both networks isolated, you need to perform management
and operating systems tasks separately.
• Updates for HP Integrity iLO and Superdome 2 targets require network traffic in both directions
between the server running HP SUM and the target. The server running HP SUM creates a local
HTTP server, which is used to server firmware binaries to the target. The target issues an HTTP
request to the server running HP SUM to retries the firmware binaries during the update process.
