68 Decimal: The DHCP/Proxy DHCP server responds to client requests on this port. This is
the same port used by a standard DHCP server.
69 Decimal: The TFTP server listens on this port for file requests from PXE devices.
4011 Decimal: When running on the same server as the DHCP service or daemon, the Proxy
DHCP server listens on this port for PXE information requests.
The proprietary IP ports include:
998 Decimal: Novell-pbserv client connection port. It receives all connection requests from the
Preboot Services devices on this port.
13331 Decimal: Novell-zmgprebootpolicy client connection port. It receives all connection
requests from the PXE devices on this port.
Although PXE devices make their initial requests to novell-tftp and novell-zmgprebootpolicy on the
ports listed above, the remainder of the transactions can occur on any available port. For this reason,
Imaging Servers cannot be separated from their clients by a firewall.
IMPORTANT: Novell-tftp and novell-zmgprebootpolicy are not firewall or network filter friendly.
You should not attempt to run these services or daemons through a firewall. If users need to pass
preboot work through a firewall, then all Preboot Services work needs to be on the outside and
merely reference a Web service inside the firewall.
