Satellite Requirements; Windows Device Performing Satellite Roles - Novell ZENWORKS 10 CONFIGURATION MANAGEMENT SP3 - INSTALLATION 10.3 Installation Manual

1.2 Satellite Requirements

A satellite is a device that can perform certain roles that a ZENworks Primary Server normally
performs. A satellite can be a managed device (Windows) or an unmanaged device (Linux) that has
the ZENworks Adaptive Agent installed on it.
The following sections contain more information:
Section 1.2.1, "Windows Device Performing Satellite Roles," on page 14
Section 1.2.2, "Linux Device Performing Satellite Roles," on page 15

1.2.1 Windows Device Performing Satellite Roles

In addition to their usual functions, Windows devices can be used as satellites. Make sure that when
you use these managed devices for satellites, they are capable of performing the satellite functions.
A Windows device performing satellite roles must meet the minimum requirements of a Windows
managed device listed in
following exceptions:
Windows Embedded XP is not a supported workstation operating system for Satellite devices.
Satellite devices require additional TCP and UDP ports to be open.
The following table lists the additional TCP and UDP ports that must be open on a Satellite device:

Requirements Additional Details
80 Make sure that the port is same as the HTTP port used
by the parent Primary Server.
IMPORTANT: If you plan to use AdminStudio 9.0
ZENworks Edition, it requires that the Primary Server is
using port 80.
443 Port 443 is used for CASA authentication. Opening this
port allows ZENworks Configuration Management to
manage devices outside of the firewall. It is a good
practice to make sure that the network is configured to
always allow communication on this port between the
ZENworks Server and ZENworks Agents on managed
devices.
998 Used by Preboot Server.
67 Used by proxy DHCP when it is not running on the same
device as the DHCP server.
69 Used by the Imaging TFTP, but will not work across
firewall because it opens random UDP port for each PXE
device.
997 Used by the Imaging Server for multicasting.
