Starting from version 11 the TruView appliances ship with a firewall called Firewalld. Firewalld is by default available when using CentOS 7. The default configured listener ports at TVF are udp/2055 and udp/6343. If other ports are configured the firewall configuration has to verified and altered.

Commands

Switch user:

# sudo su -

Verify firewall:

# firewall-cmd --zone=public --list-ports

Alter firewall:

# firewall-cmd --zone=public --add-port=2056/udp
# firewall-cmd --zone=public --add-port=2056/udp --permanent

Several internal processes on TruView version 11 appliances are being monitored by a small utility that runs on the appliance itself. The status these processes can be viewed by issuing the following url:

http://ip_tvf/ui

This utility is configured to look for the listener ports that the Tracker ships with; udp/2055 and udp/6343. In case different listeners are used the utility will show a warning. Configuring this utility to look after the right listener ports will make these warning disappear.

# vi /opt/tv/manager/consul.d/nftracker.json

When this is done, restart the utility.

# systemctl restart tv-manager-client

Within a few moments all warings should be gone.
