esx firewall ports needed to let HPSIM see SMH

[Ervinck Kevin]

Anybody know what firewall ports should be open on the ESX server to let HPSIM detect the SMH?

Currently I have these opened:

Enabled services: CIMSLP ntpClient VCB CIMHttpsServer sshClient snmpd vpxHeartbeats LicenseClient sshServer CIMHttpServer

Opened ports:
dataprotector-data : port 18006 tcp.out
dataprotector-data : port 18009 tcp.out
dataprotector-data : port 18000 tcp.out
dataprotector-data : port 18001 tcp.out
sim-cert : port 280 tcp.out
dataprotector-data : port 18010 tcp.out
dataprotector-data : port 18007 tcp.out
dataprotector : port 5555 tcp.in tcp.out
dataprotector-data : port 18004 tcp.out
dataprotector-data : port 18003 tcp.out
dataprotector-data : port 18008 tcp.out
hpim : port 2381 tcp.in
dataprotector-data : port 18005 tcp.out
dataprotector-data : port 18002 tcp.out
HP-UPS : port 3573 tcp.in

You have the two ports listed;
hpim : port 2381 tcp.in
sim-cert : port 280 tcp.out
And the snmpd service is also listed.

There's an additional service and port if you use VMM.

That was I thought initially, however as long as I don't open up the firewall completely (esxcfg-firewall -allowIncoming) the 'Identification' doesn't detect a SMH.
