I’ve got a question regarding Guest Processing on Windows servers and need some sanity check, if I’ve understood it correctly
To circumvent the hassle with VIX with different credentials for hundreds of machines, in multiple domains and deploying the non-persistent components every time a job runs – my resolution would be a persistent agent.
As I want to have as little as possible opened ports in our firewalls, my way to go would be the deployment kit, with certificate based authentication, which would be installed by our automation tool – which also would streamline the process for non domain joined systems.
After looking through the ports list (https://helpcenter.veeam.com/docs/vbr/u ... components) am I correct I only need to open Port tcp/6173 between my GIP and the Windows VM – at least for file indexing?
The ports tcp/6160,11731 are also listed, but only for the Veeam Installer Service, which I wouldn’t use because the deployment kit is already installed on the systems.
Thanks in advance.
