FortiSIEM External Ports
This chapter describes the external communication ports needed for various FortiSIEM nodes to work. The ports are broken down for:
In release 6.4, some clear communication has been replaced by SSL communication. If an entry in the tables below has 5.3, then that entry is valid for releases 5.3 and below. If an entry in the tables below has 6.4, then that entry is valid for releases 6.4 and above.
