Control access at external firewall

You can open or close specific ports at the external firewall.

You can control access to the user interfaces and APIs on StorageGRID Admin Nodes by opening or closing specific ports at the external firewall. For example, you might want to prevent tenants from being able to connect to the Grid Manager at the firewall, in addition to using other methods to control system access.

If you want to configure the StorageGRID internal firewall, see Configure internal firewall.

Port Description If port is open…​

443

Default HTTPS port for Admin Nodes

Web browsers and management API clients can access the Grid Manager, the Grid Management API, the Tenant Manager, and the Tenant Management API.

Note: Port 443 is also used for some internal traffic.

8443

Restricted Grid Manager port on Admin Nodes

  • Web browsers and management API clients can access the Grid Manager and the Grid Management API using HTTPS.

  • Web browsers and management API clients can’t access the Tenant Manager or the Tenant Management API.

  • Requests for internal content will be rejected.

9443

Restricted Tenant Manager port on Admin Nodes
