NetBackup master server ports
The master server must be able to communicate with the media servers, clients, as well as servers where the Java or the Windows Administration Console is running.
The following table lists the minimum ports required by the master server:
Table: NetBackup master server ports
Source | Destination | Service | Port |
|---|---|---|---|
Master server | Media server | VERITAS_PBX | 1556 |
Master server | Media server | VNETD | 137241 |
Master server | Client | VERITAS_PBX | 1556 |
Master server | Client | VNETD | 137241 |

1 - It applies while you use the Resilient Network feature or when NetBackup 8.0 or earlier master server cannot reach a legacy service via PBX.
2 - This port is used to provide back-level media server support for the media servers that are configured for cloud storage. Only media server versions 7.7.x to 8.1.2 are supported.
Ensure that the older media servers use this port. Communication with the master server fails if the older media servers use a different port.
