Enabling Communication Between the Enterprise and Workstations

To allow workstations at the property to communicate with the Enterprise, you must add Firewall exceptions for the following services on the Simphony application servers using either the default ports or the ports you assign when installing Simphony.

  • Internet Information Services (IIS): By default uses Transmission Control Protocol (TCP) port 8080 or port 443 for HTTPS connections.

  • Oracle MICROS Labor Management: By default uses TCP port 81.

You may need to open extra ports for additional Simphony features. Contact your local support representative or Oracle Hospitality Support Services for assistance.

For instructions on opening a port in Windows Firewall, refer to the Microsoft TechNet Library at https://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library.
