Firewall Requirements
Published 17 October 2019
The SQL Monitor base monitor needs to be able to connect to the following TCP ports on each machine you want to monitor,
If using WMI Over DCOM:
135 | Remote Procedure Call (RPC) |
1433 | The TCP port for each SQL Server instance on the machine. (1433 is the default) |
xxxx | The port(s) you have configured for WMI over DCOM |
If using WMI over WinRM:
5986 | The WinRM HTTPS Listener |
1433 | The TCP port for each SQL Server instance on the machine. (1433 is the default) |
Note: Named SQL Server instances use dynamic ports by default, so you need to configure a specific TCP port for each named instance. For more information, see Configure a Server to Listen on a Specific TCP Port.
