What tcp-ip ports are used in the controller

Issue

I need to know all ports used so that I can setup my firewall on your controller.

 

First reaction

The controller is a real-time machine that will be slowed down by firewalls, antiviruses, and all other flavors that system administrators use to install in PCs. Most probably, it will hinder proper operation of the real-time properties needed in a controller.

Treat a controller like an island, do not try to make it another PC in a huge network, just map a drive from the prep station or station where you want to transfer data and jobs from.
