The webports option enables the use of the Web client outside a firewall by specifying the TCP/IP port number used by the Tivoli Storage Manager Client Acceptor daemon and Web Client Agent service for communications with the Web GUI.
Values for both the Client Acceptor daemon and the Web Client Agent service are required.
If you do not specify this option, the default value, zero (0), is used for both ports. This causes TCP/IP to randomly assign a free port number for the Client Acceptor daemon and the Web Client Agent service.
The ports you specify with the webports and httpport options must be opened in the firewall.
To enable the backup-archive client, Command Line Admin client, and the Scheduler (running in polling mode) to run outside a firewall, the port specified by the server option tcpport (default 1500) must be opened in the firewall.
To enable the administrative Web interface to run outside a firewall the port specified by server option httpport (default is 1580) must be opened in the firewall.
See Httpport and Tcpport for more information.
