What ports do VSphere Vclient use?

I'd like to remotely connect to an ESX box on a remote network. I'm fine with how to configure the Netscreen to open up ports to allow inbound/outbound traffic but don't know what ports to open. I'm using Vsphere client 4.0.0 Build 208111 and the box is ESX 4.0.0 Build 208167.

Found this link from VMWare's site but is sort of confusing as to what I really need:

I always get confused between your post and bgoering posts so I don't want to hurt anyone so I said one of the expert in EE ;-) who ever has shared the above info in EE which is already in EE Inventory deserves the points from the user. So here coolsport00 deserve the points if the above solves the user question.
