Workload Orchestrator Ports and Protocols
Estimated reading time: 1 minute
The following ports must be open to access the full set of Workload Orchestrator features:
| Acronym | Full Name | Port | Description |
|---|---|---|---|
| HTTP | Hypertext Transfer Protocol | 80 | This client-server protocol enables web data exchange between browsers and servers. |
| HTTPS | Hypertext Transfer Protocol - Secure | 443 | The secure version of the HTTP protocol encrypts all requests and responses with Transport Layer Security (TLS) or Secure Socket Layer (SSL). |
| LWM2M | Lightweight Machine-to-Machine | 5683 |
This OMA (Open Mobile Alliance) Lightweight Machine-to-Machine (LWM2M) protocol provides device management via client-server application layer communication. HPE provides the LWM2M server. LWM2M-compatible devices, like OT Link Platform-enabled devices, are the clients. |
| LWM2M with DTLS | Lightweight Machine-to-Machine - Secure | 5684 | The secure version of the LWM2M protocol uses Datagram Transport Layer Security (DTLS). |
| BS | Bootstrap | 15683 | Bootstrap is related to LWM2M. It allows the device to initialize configuration parameters from the bootstrap server when it first powers-on. |
| BS with DTLS | Bootstrap - Secure | 15684 | The secure version of Bootstrap uses Datagram Transport Layer Security (DTLS). |
| MQTT | Message Queuing Telemetry Transport | 1883 |
A lightweight messaging protocol for data transfer to/from IoT devices that is optimized to minimize network bandwidth consumption. MQTT is designed for event-driven interactions with objects that measure physical quantities such as light, gas, temperature, dust, motion, sound, and pressure. |
| MQTT TLS/SSL | Message Queuing Telemetry Transport - Secure | 8883 | The secure version of the MQTT protocol uses Transport Layer Security (TLS)/Secure Socket Layer (SSL) to provide a secure connection. |
|
OTA |
Over-the-Air | Not Applicable | Over-the-Air updates facilitate device firmware updates. OTA refers to the methods for distributing software, configuration settings, and updating encryption keys. |
| Minio |
|
9443 | Open this port to enable offline deployments from the Minio storage system. |
