Tyan's AMI MegaRAC Port Usage

Summary:

Some of Tyan's server boards have IPMI and integrated iKVM functionality.  Securing access to these resources requires knowledge of specific TCP/UDP port traffic requirements.

The following ports are necessary:

  • Web: TCP 80, TCP 443
  • SSH: TCP 22
  • IPMI: TCP/UDP 623
  • KVM: TCP 7578, TCP 7582
  • Virtual Media: TCP 5120, 5123, 5124, 5127

Discussion:

I have an S7012 board with iKVM functionality that I was trying to expose over VPN.  My TMG VPN configuration has port access restricted to the DMZ - so I had to open specific ports to give myself access to the iKVM.  Took a while to find.  Board manual, AST2050 IPMI manual.
