Default Exposed Network Services (IB Switch)

Service Name
Protocol
Port
Description
SSH
TCP
22
Used by the integrated Secure Shell service to enable administrative access to the IB switch using a CLI.
HTTP (BUI)
TCP
80
Used by the integrated HTTP service to enable administrative access to the IB switch using a browser interface. While TCP/80 is typically used for clear-text access, by default the IB switch automatically redirects incoming requests to the secure version of this service running on TCP/443.
NTP
UDP
123
Used by the integrated NTP (Network Time Protocol) (client only) service used to synchronize the local system clock to one or more external time sources.
SNMP
UDP
161
Used by the integrated SNMP service to provide a management interface to monitor the health of the IB switch and to monitor received trap notifications.
HTTPS (BUI)
TCP
443
Used by the integrated HTTPS service to enable administrative access to the IB switch over an encrypted (SSL/TLS) channel using a browser interface.
IPMI
TCP
623
Used by the integrated Intelligence Platform Management Interface (IPMI) service to provide a computer interface for various monitoring and management functions. Do not disable this service, because it is used by Oracle Enterprise Manager Ops Center to collect hardware inventory data, field replaceable unit descriptions, hardware sensor information, and hardware component status information.
ServiceTag
TCP
6481
Used by the Oracle ServiceTag service. This is an Oracle discovery protocol used to identify servers and facilitate service requests. This service is used by products such as Oracle Enterprise Manager Ops Center to discover IB switch software and to integrate with other Oracle automatic service solutions.
