Hi,<br />
Thanks for pointing out the link, however I have come across it before putting up the question. I have tried to search on the internet, but I am not able to find any documents on the Cisco NAC profiler server/collector on the firewall ports. Would you know of any documents describing the ports required for Cisco NAC profiler server and collector?<br />
<br />
Thanks.

Hi,<br />
I was wondering if anyone may have any documents on the firewall ports required for NAC profiler server and collector as well as NAC manager and server? I am trying to determine what ports are required as this is being implemented on a Layer 3 OOB real ip. Any help is appreciated.<br />
<br />
Thanks.

Cisco NAC Firewall Ports Required

Hardware-based firewalls provide more sophisticated protection for inbound and outbound traffic than the simple Windows software firewall or the basic NAT firewalls found in routers. These devices implement techniques such as stateful packet inspection, deep packet inspection, and content filtering; and may include built-in antivirus and anti-malware protection.

Hardware Firewalls

A router is a networking device that forwards data packets between computer networks. Routers perform the "traffic directing" functions on the Internet. The most familiar type of routers are home and small office cable or DSL routers that simply pass data, such as web pages, email, IM, and videos between computers and the Internet. More sophisticated routers, such as enterprise routers, connect large business or ISP networks up to the powerful core routers that forward data at high speed along the optical fiber lines of the Internet backbone. Though routers are typically dedicated hardware devices, use of software-based routers has grown increasingly common.
