The documentation recommendeds opening a number of ports that is unique to the number of daemons that we ran. This doesn't really cover all use cases. Users can easily restart daemons in ways that cause the daemons to bind to higher ports. This leads to OSDs or MDSs binding to ports that are firewalled. See bz 1219818 and bz 1219493 for examples. The recommendation for firewall ports on OSDs should simply be "open all of TCP 6800-7300". The change that I'm proposing upstream for this is https://github.com/ceph/ceph/pull/4740 , and there should be an equivalent change in the downstream docs.
