About the ports

On all Enterprise Vault servers you need to open the normal ports that are required for authentication within a Windows domain. For example, Kerberos (port 88), DNS (port 53 UDP), Active Directory (port 445).

Enterprise Vault servers and the servers with which they communicate may require other ports to be open, depending on the functionality that you require.

Table: Destination ports required by Enterprise Vault lists the ports that Enterprise Vault requires.

See http://support.veritas.com/docs/323113 for information on configuring Enterprise Vault for restricted DCOM access.
