Server Firewall Settings

• Be sure that TCP Ports 1000-1200, 5000-5200, and 22 are forwarded to the WARES Server if the server is behind a firewall or router
• If the WARES Server is not behind a firewall or router and all traffic is sent to the server, then be sure that the following rules are setup in Shorewall using the Webmin interface
  

  

  Sample Shorewall Rule Configuration

  (Note: Any errors that are saved will prevent all external access to the server and/or network)

  • ACCEPT TCP 10000:10000
  • ACCEPT TCP 1000:1200
