Deploying Software Updates Through Firewall
I am unable to deploy software update through my firewall unless I open all TCP ports between my ITA box and the managed servers. Is there documentation on which ports need to be open to do this or is there a way to set the ports used for this.
I am using ITA 8.0 and OMSA 5.1

Clarification:
ITA can comunicate fine through the firewall when doing discovery and inventory. It is only when I try to do a software deployment that I run into an issue. The problem is the managed server is trying to open a connection to the managment server on what looks to be an ephemeral port (or at least within a broad range of ports). Since we have managed servers that sit on various DMZs as well as in remote locations, we need to be able to deploy updates in a secure manner using ITA.

Can I get an explaination of how this all works so I understand what I am up against when trying to secure communication between ITA and a managed server through a firewall?
