Firewall Rules Between the Gateway and Oracle Private Cloud Appliance

This section provides two separate tables showing the internal firewall rules between the Gateway and different versions of Oracle Private Cloud Appliance (PCA.)

PCA 3.x has been re-engineered and now has different access requirements. While PCA 2.4.x and earlier versions are still supported, and have the same access requirements as before, we have added updates to PCA 3.0.x.


Note -  PCA 3.0.x is supported only on Gateway 21.6 and higher versions running Oracle Linux 8.x.

Refer to the following tables:
