Dell RecoverPoint for Virtual Machines 6.0.1 Installation and Deployment Guide

Establishing vCenter-to-vRPA communication

During installation, the vCenter server communicates with the vRPAs over port 443 to acquire the RecoverPoint for VMs plug-in. The ESXi clusters communicate over the network with the vRPA targets.

• Ensure that you open port 443 between the vCenter Server and the vRPAs in both directions, and port 7225 in the vCenter Server-to-vRPAs direction only.
• Ensure that ESXi clusters can communicate with their vRPA targets. Configure the ESXi firewall profile to allow communication through the network.
• See the RecoverPoint for Virtual Machines Security Configuration Guide for more information.
