Table 5. Content Platform Engine ports–continued
Port name Reply or Response to requestor? Long lived sessions? Load Balancer? Supports SSL and TLS?
SMTP (Email Notification) No No No Yes
Process Task Manager / Component Manager version 1 communications port Yes Yes No No
Component Manager Event Port Yes Yes No No

Content Platform Engine server to server communication port Yes Yes No No
Table 6. Content Platform Engine ports - continued
Port name Notes
SMTP (Email Notification) The port is on the SMTP server and is configured for Content Platform Engine email notification in Administration Console for Content Platform Engine.

Communication on this port is one-way, from the Content Platform Engine server to the email server.

Process Task Manager / Component Manager version 1 communications port This port is on the Application Engine server for Process Task Manager to communicate with the Component Managers.
Component Manager Event Port The port is on the Application Engine server, configured through the Process Task Manager. This port number must match the port used for the Component Manager Event Port on the Application Engine.

Communication on this port is one-way from the Content Platform Engine server to the Component Manager.

Rules Listener The port is on the Content Platform Engine server.

Communication on this port is bidirectional from the Content Platform Engine server to the Rules Listener

Content Platform Engine server to server communication port For a cluster configuration only. If there is a firewall between the Content Platform Engine server instances of a cluster, this value should be set to a specific assigned port number and that port value should be allowed in the firewall configuration.

The port is set for the workflow system. The port number is the internal port number, which is the field name for this in the Administration Console for Content Platform Engine. In a cluster configuration, this port needs to be set in Administration Console for Content Platform Engine and it needs to be opened in the firewall.

Communication on this port is bidirectional between Content Platform Engine servers in a cluster.
