Avaya Scopia XT Series Deployment Manual page 26

Planning the Topology of the Avaya Scopia
XT Series
In each of the topologies, the XT Series can be located either inside or outside the enterprise. You
need to open different ports depending on the topology, and the location of the endpoints. The
source for a port is the sender of data packets, and the destination is the receiver. There are two
types of ports which require opening (see
Series on page 26):
• Bidirectional ports, which allow the XT Series to send and receive data packets on the same
port.
• Unidirectional ports, which allow the XT Series to either initiate communication or receive
data packets.
For a unidirectional port, you must designate it as inbound or outbound. A port is inbound if
its source is sending to a destination protected by the firewall (for example, data sent from an
external XT Series to Equinox Management). A port is outbound if its destination is receiving
data from a source protected by the firewall (for example, data sent from Equinox
Management to an external XT Series).
