To access Analytics Dashboard, ensure that port 8445 is open. For information about other ports that you need to open for internal communication, see Prerequisites for Installing Analytics Server
in the NetIQ Access Manager Appliance 4.5 Installation and Upgrade Guide.
You can use IP tables to restrict cluster communication. Allow communication between only Analytics Server cluster nodes and Access Manager devices.
The following is a sample configuration of IP tables:
Iptables -P INPUT DROP ## By default drop all iptables -A INPUT -s 164.99.184.0/23 -j ACCEPT ## You can allow traffic only between Analytics Dashboard cluster nodes and Access Manager devices instead of the entire network. iptables -A INPUT -i lo -j ACCEPT ## Enable Loop back communication iptables -A INPUT -p tcp --dport 8445 -j ACCEPT ## Enable 8445 for public access iptables-save
