JetStream DR Port Requirements

This article applies to all JSDR software versions.

On-Premises Data Center

The following ports must be configured to use JetStream DR software.

VMware vCenter Server

HTTPS PortIf using a firewall, HTTPS port 443 must be open.

JetStream DR Management Server Appliance (MSA)

NetworkStatic or dynamically assigned (DHCP) IP addresses can be used for the MSA interface. The FQDN should be registered with DNS.
PortsWhen JetStream DR software is installed, a range of ports will automatically be opened on the source ESXi hosts. For most users, no additional action is necessary. In cases where the on-premises/source setup has special firewall rules blocking these ports, additional administrative steps will be needed to manually open these ports.
Port Range: 32873-32878

Network Between Protected Site and Recovery Site

A JetStream DR network with the following characteristics must be established between the protected site and the recovery site:

JetStream DR Management Server Appliance (MSA)A management network is required for the MSA. This network is used for access to the JetStream DR RESTful APIs and making other data path calls. If a private network is available for connecting to the object store, this private network should be added to the MSA VM as a separate network. If no private network is available, make sure the management network can be used to connect to the object store.
Management Network: Required
External Network (for object store access): A dedicated external network can be used; otherwise, data traffic will be sent over the management network.
JetStream DR Virtual Appliance (DRVA)If the only network used is the management network, make sure it has access to both IO Filter and the object store. If multiple networks exist within the cluster, all must be attached to the DRVA VMs.
Recovery from Object Cloud Virtual Appliance (RocVA)If the only network used is the management network, make sure it has access to both the ESXi host(s) and the object store. If multiple networks exist within the cluster, all must be attached to the RocVA VM. The RocVA is a temporary VM that is automatically created when needed for VM recovery, then removed when it is no longer needed.
Object Store / Blob StorageThe object store/Blob Storage should be accessible to both the protected site and the recovery site.
Replication Log StoreDR Virtual Appliances (DRVAs) and ESXi host(s) must have direct access to this storage.

IMPORTANT: DHCP is required for use by all transient elements (i.e. RocVA, RVM, etc.)

NOTE: Any required ports (e.g. port 443) should be opened at the source, the destination, and at all points in between.


AVS Setup

If JetStream DR will be used with AVS, additional port requirements must also be considered:
