As some of you may know, I’ve started working for my new employer last month.
I’m now busy with my so called Masterclass and for that I’m attending a lot of courses. A couple of weeks ago I attended a five-day VMware vSphere course and in a while I will take an exam and try to get my VCP4 certification.
At home I’ve created a labsetup so I can fiddle around with ESXi, vCenter server, etc. without breaking any setups. Today I was trying to get a connection to my vCenter server from work but that involves opening a couple of ports in your firewall or, in my case, tunneling a few towards my home. At first it was unclear to me which ports should and shouldn’t be opened. I found this page which provides this pdf. This is a great diagram mentioning all ports for all connections typically used in your vSphere environment.
I found this to be very usefull and therefore like to share it with you as well.
