Description Andrew Dahms 2014-10-07 00:43:57 EDT
The list of firewall rules that the engine-setup command configures must be updated.

This list can be found here:

https://access.redhat.com/documentation/en-US/Red_Hat_Enterprise_Virtualization/3.5-Beta/html-single/Installation_Guide/index.html#sect-Firewalls

In the first table, entries must be added for 6100 (noVNC and HTML5), and 7410 (Kdump).

The full list of ports currently configured is as follows:

-A INPUT -i lo -j ACCEPT
-A INPUT -p icmp -m icmp --icmp-type any -j ACCEPT
-A INPUT -m state --state RELATED,ESTABLISHED -j ACCEPT
-A INPUT -p tcp -m state --state NEW -m tcp --dport 22 -j ACCEPT
-A INPUT -p tcp -m state --state NEW -m tcp --dport 5432 -j ACCEPT
-A INPUT -p tcp -m state --state NEW -m tcp --dport 443 -j ACCEPT
-A INPUT -p udp -m state --state NEW -m udp --dport 7410 -j ACCEPT
-A INPUT -p tcp -m state --state NEW -m tcp --dport 6100 -j ACCEPT
-A INPUT -p tcp -m state --state NEW -m tcp --dport 80 -j ACCEPT

These lines can be found in the log files in /var/log/ovirt-engine/setup on the machine where the Manager is installed.

Checked in Red_Hat_Enterprise_Virtualization-Installation_Guide-3.5-en-US-3.5-33.

Entries for ports 6100 and 7410 have been added as requested.

Moving to VERIFIED.
Comment 9 Michal Skrivanek 2014-11-21 08:01:08 EST
sorry for a late response, but I think the port 6100 would deserve a little clarification

port 6100 is needed for the websocket proxy access.
It is specifically used _only_ when customer uses web-based console clients (noVNC, spice-html5) and is running the websocket proxy (which is a mandatory component in this case) on the engine host.
3.5 will/does support deployment of the proxy to a different host. And regular/standalone console clients do not need that

I understand the description is a bit convoluted so please try to think of some sensible rephrase:-)

again, my apologies about late response
Comment 10 Tahlia Richardson 2014-11-24 01:35:42 EST
Thanks for that info, Michal. 
How about: "[This port is] needed for websocket proxy access when using web-based console clients (noVNC and spice-html5) on the engine." ?
Comment 11 Michal Skrivanek 2014-11-24 03:12:22 EST
thanks. Just somehow make clear the websocket proxy may or may not be running on the engine host. There's probably a new section about deploying the proxy elsewhere since it's a new feature.

But on monday morning I don't have any better wording to offer....:-)

Completely understandable ;)

Okay, how about: "[This port] provides websocket proxy access for web-based console clients (noVNC and spice-html5) when the websocket proxy is running on the Manager. If the websocket proxy is running on a different host, however, this port is not used." ?
Comment 13 Michal Skrivanek 2014-11-25 04:35:43 EST
sounds good!
Comment 14 Tahlia Richardson 2014-11-25 17:47:24 EST
Excellent, thanks Michal! 

Moving this to ON_QA.
