If you want to restore a VM with NW8.1 you need to go to the VMware Webclient and issue the VM restore.
If you want to restore a file from a VM, you can perform this from the VM itself (and indeed need to point your web browser to the EBR). Adobe Flash is required.
You can perform this restore from a different VM as well, you only need to provide vSphere credentials (advanced login). For example, you are want to restore a file from VM1. Go to VM2 (which has Flash) and point your browser to the http://EBR:8580/flr. Advanced login will let you mount drives from all VM’s that were backed up. You can select the file and restore it to a local drive of VM2.

Yes, that is correct. You need port 8580 open to the EBR.
Here is a cheat sheet which might come in handy!

Thank you Nick,
so you confirm me that ,in order to use FLR , my VMs must be able to contact via browser the EBR ?
For example : i want restore 1 file from VM1 backup in VM1 --> from VM1 i must open the browser and point to my ebr (on specified port)

Check with network team. Could also be a firewall issue.
