This document lists the network ports required for the Flame Family ecosystem to function properly. Use this information to configure firewalls or cloud security groups. There are two categories of network ports:

/opt/Autodesk/cfg/network.cfg, typically spanning from 49152 to 65535, is used
by IFFFS Wiretap Server and Wiretap Gateway. On Linux, this range can be
further limited by editing /proc/sys/net/ipv4/ip_local_port_range. Backburner
services use this setting directly.*These columns indicate whether the port applies to the firewall rules of creative workstations (F), Burn nodes (B), or Project Servers (PS). Use this information to configure firewalls or security groups for the appropriate systems, ensuring proper communication between them.
| Name | Protocol | Port Range | F* | B* | PS* | Notes |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| DNS-SD | UDP | 5353 | x | x | x | |
| NFS | TCP | 2049 | x | x | NFS | |
| RPC mountd | TCP & UDP | 20048 | x | x | NFS | |
| RPC Portmapper | TCP & UDP | 111 | x | x | NFS |

These are ports opened by third-party softwares commonly used with Flame Family products. This is not an exhaustive list. It is provided for convenience to help you configure your firewall. Refer to the vendor's documentation for up-to-date information.

Run the Network Ports diagnostic in the Diagnostics tab of the Service Monitor to detect conflicts between Flame Family services and 3rd Parties running on the workstation. Port conflicts might lead to hangs, delays, or errors when running Flame Family products.
