Open firewall for full MOM Agent

[Ted Trevellyan]

What firewall settings would be required in order for the MOM agent to have
"Full" control and functionality? If I follow the MOM security guide, the
agent needs to be installed with "None" control setting.

I would like to be able to install agents from the MOM management server
located on the corporate intranet with the MOM agents on servers located in a
firewall protected DMZ network.

Got any ideas?

the mom agent uses DCOM port ranges, which in terms means random ports.
so you should open everything from the DMZ servers to the MOM server.

Or for a more locked down envoirement use the recommendations you found.
