The components of a CollabNet
TeamForge installation listen on a number of operating
system ports.
A small subset must be exposed externally to enable users to access TeamForge services. Any port that is not absolutely needed
must be closed.
You can select your open ports in one of these ways:
- Use the firewall configuration GUI tool that comes with your operating system. It's
usually launched with a command like system-config-selinux.
- Open the /etc/sysconfig/iptables file and specify your open ports
by hand.
Ports open to the Internet
Open the following operating system level ports. All other ports must be firewalled off to
maintain security.
Important: Do not open port 7080 or port 8080 to the Internet. These ports are
only for communications between the TeamForge application and the source code integration
service, when those two site components are running on separate boxes.
-
22 (SSH)
- Port 22 is the default port for the secure shell (SSH). This is required for basic SSH
administrative functionality and for CVS, as all CVS transactions occur over SSH. If all
Teamforge repositories are in SVN (the default for Teamforge), then this port should be
closed to the public and only accessible to the system administrators.
If you have to
expose SSH to the Internet, the best way to protect it is to require SSH keys and not
allow password authentication, and do not permit root logins over SSH. If you must use
local authentication for SSH, enforce regular password changes and password
complexity.
Note: If you have to
expose SSH internally, limit access to the port to a bastion host if you can;
otherwise limit it to specific trusted hosts or subnets.
-
25 (SMTP)
- Port 25 is the default port for SMTP (email). CollabNet
TeamForge discussion forums include mailing
list functionality that allows users to send email to the TeamForge server. The James mail server included with
TeamForge listens on port 25 to accept this
mail for processing.
- 80 (HTTP)
- Port 80 is the default port for Web data transfer. We strongly recommend that you set
up SSL and use port 80 only to redirect to port 443.
-
443 (https)
- Port 443 is the default port for encrypted Web data transfer (HTTPS). The Apache web
server should be configured to encrypt all data so that it cannot be compromised by a
third party with malicious intent. Apache can be configured to force all traffic to be
sent over HTTPS, even when a request is sent via port 80 (HTTP).
TeamForge can help you take care of this, if you
tell it to. See Set up SSL for your TeamForge site for details.
-
29418 (Gerrit SSH)
- Port 29418 is the default port which should be open for Gerrit SSH.
Ports for internal use only
Open the REPORTS_DATABASE_PORT if you are granting direct access to the datamart from
specific IPs using the REPORTS_DB_ACCESS_HOSTS site-options.conf
token.
