Section Number and Name: 


1.6. Ports and Firewalls Requirements

Table 1.3. Satellite Server incoming traffic


Describe the issue: 


We describe the usage of port 8443 in that specific table as well but port 8443 is not used by any services on the Satellite server itself to have a need of establishing an incoming connection. 

Suggestions for improvement: 

Consult with product engineers and then further remove port 8443's description from "Table 1.3. Satellite Server incoming traffic" only ( for both connected and disconnected satellite installations ) 

Additional information: 

Perhaps the same change is needed for Sat 6.12 as well.
Comment 2 Evgeni Golov 2023-02-20 07:11:33 UTC 
That's correct. 8443 is not used on the Satellite at all (anymore).

It *is* used on the Capsule, but even there the use is deprecated since 6.11 as the same requests can be made on port 443 too.
Comment 3 Malhar Jivrajani 2023-02-20 07:29:10 UTC 
Okay. So, shall we completely remove the row of Port 8443 from Connected, Disconnected, and Capsule?
This will be applicable to versions 6.13, 6.12, and 6.11.

Comment 4 Evgeni Golov 2023-02-20 08:30:17 UTC 
I think it should be merged with the other entry for "Content Host Registration" on port 443, as the features are used over that port
