Xgig Client Software; Xgig Access Through A Firewall - Viavi Xgig1000 Hardware Manual

Xgig Client Software

Xgig Application client software is distributed on a USB memory drive in a separate
package. Applications are installed on a PC running Windows 2008 Server, Windows 7
Professional, Windows 7 Enterprise, Windows 8.1, or Microsoft Windows Server 2012 R2.
Refer to the Software Installation Guide that accompanies the application client software
for installation information.

Xgig Access Through a Firewall

In general, Xgig client software should be able to access an Xgig1000 chassis that lies
behind a firewall. Ports must be open as described in the following table to permit operation
across a firewall for Xgig applications:
Table 49 Requirements for Xgig Access Through a Firewall
You can edit the TCP port for the client applications by selecting Edit Xgig TCP Port from
the Start menu. A dialog appears where you can type in a value for the TCP port. Click
Apply to change the port. You can also change the TCP port for the most recently used
chassis by clicking the chassis name in the Most Recently Used Chassis section of the
dialog.
For sites where the Xgig Analyzer is the only application, it is suggested that the DCOM
port remain closed.
Network Address Translation (NAT) is not supported. An Xgig1000 chassis protected by a
firewall that uses Network Address Translation (NAT) cannot be accessed from Xgig
clients outside the firewall.
For Windows users, ICMPv4 'Allow incoming echo request' (used for Ping) is disabled by
default. To use the Xgig Web Utility to upgrade an Xgig1000 chassis, this option must be
enabled.
