Preparing to run UNICOM Intelligence Interviewer - Server through a firewall
If you will be running UNICOM Intelligence Interviewer - Server through a firewall certain ports on the firewall must be open.
Firewall between the Internet and the web server
All communication between the browser and the UNICOM Intelligence Interviewer - Server Web Server (mrIWeb) and between the browser and the Accessories server defaults to using HTTP on port 80. If your website runs SSL or uses a different port number, you can specify this on the Internet Information Services (IIS) Configuration page during the installation procedure.
Firewall between the web server and the accessories server
When the Web Server needs to communicate with the Accessories server in order to access the image cache, and there is a firewall between the two computers, communication normally takes place using HTTP over port 80. The firewall must allow traffic in both directions on this port. If your website runs SSL or uses a different port number, you can specify this on the Internet Information Services (IIS) Configuration page during the installation procedure.
Firewall between the web server and the interviewing server
Communication between the Web Server (mrIWeb) and the UNICOM Intelligence Interviewer - Server (mrIEng) usually takes place using SOAP over port 80. If your website runs SSL or uses a different port number, you can specify this on the Internet Information Services (IIS) Configuration page during the installation procedure.
Firewall between the UNICOM Intelligence Interviewer - Server Admin/Accessories server and the data server
Communication between the UNICOM Intelligence Interviewer - Server Admin/Accessories server and the data server takes place using TCP on port 1433. This port must be opened before the installation begins, as the installation process writes to the data server.
If you have SQL running on a named instance, then the port number is dynamically assigned and could be something other than 1433. If you know which port number is being used, you should open this port rather than port 1433. If you do not know which port is being used (and for more information about named SQL instances in general), see:

Firewall between the DPM servers in the cluster
Communication between DPM servers in a cluster takes place using TCP on port 65100.
Note When implementing a cluster in a Windows Server 2008 environment, you must ensure that TCP port 65100 is open via the Windows firewall. Refer to the Windows Server 2008 documentation for information on opening ports.
