Configuring Firewalls for Use with SSSE

If your SSSE implementation includes firewalls between components, then you must open specific ports in the firewall to allow the various parts of the implementation to communicate with each other. This topic briefly describes how to configure your firewall for use with SSSE.

If a firewall is located between the Siebel Server that hosts a PIMSI Engine and the Microsoft Exchange Server host that the Web service Exchange Connector communicates with, then ask the firewall administrator to open ports for HTTP or HTTPS traffic as appropriate. Generally port 80 is used for HTTP traffic, and port 443 is used for HTTPS traffic.
