CMM ports

The Lenovo Chassis Management Module 2 modules use a variety of TCP/IP ports for communication. This topic lists these ports and indicates the ones that are fixed or can be changed by an administrator. You need to make sure that your network allows communications through these ports for the Lenovo Chassis Management Module 2 modules to function and communicate correctly.

Note: The CMM HTTP and HTTPS ports are open at all times. Port behavior is determined by the CMM HTTPS port setting, which can be affected by the CMM chassis security policy setting:
Table 1. User configurable Lenovo Flex System Enterprise Chassis ports.

The parts listing table is a three-column table that TCP/IP ports for the Lenovo Flex System Enterprise Chassis Types 8721, 8724, and 8725 option. Column 1 identifies the port name. Column 2 gives the port number. Column 3 provides a description.

Port name Port number Description
CIM/XML HTTPS 5989 (default) CIM/XML HTTPS used by management applications
FTP 21 (default) FTP
FTP Data 20 (default) FTP Data
http 80 (default) Web server HTTP connection - TCP
https 443 (default) SSL connection for HTTP-TCP
Secure TCP Command Mode 6091 (default) Secure TCP Command Mode used by management applications
SLP 427 (default) Service location protocol - UDP
SNMP agent 161 (default) SNMP get/set commands - UDP
SNMP traps 162 (default) SNMP traps
SSH 22 (default) Secure Shell (SSH) command-line interface - TCP
TCP Command Mode 6090 (default) TCP Command Mode
telnet 23 (default) Telnet command-line interface connection -TCP
TFTP 69 (default) TFTP
Note: The LDAP server port (port 389) is used only with the STARTTLS protocol extension to provide an equivalent to LDAPS port 636. Unsecure access to the LDAP server port is disabled: if a secure SSL connection is not established, connection to port 389 is refused. Port 389 is the default port for the CMM internal interface. Port 636 the default port for the CMM external interface.
Table 2. Fixed Lenovo Flex System Enterprise Chassis ports.

The parts listing table is a two-column table that TCP/IP ports for the Lenovo Flex System Enterprise Chassis Types 8721, 8724, and 8725 option. Column 1 identifies the port number. Column 2 provides a description.

Port number Description
25 E-mail alerts - TCP
53 DNS resolver - UDP
67 and 68 DHCP - UDP
123 NTP
