Sisense Required Ports for Linux
Previous Step:
Sisense uses certain ports to communicate with machines on the Internet and within your Sisense namespace. Below is a description of the ports that you may need to allow in your deployment.
In cluster deployments, open all traffic between the nodes (TCP and UDP).
Outbound Rules for Sisense
| Ports | Description |
|---|---|
| 80, 443 |
Allow outbound TCP connections from the workers to these ports to allow worker node updates and reloads. Additionally, outbound communication on port 443 to https://l.sisense.com for licensing. |
| 2049 |
Allow outbound TCP and UDP connections to this port to allow mounting file storage as volumes. This is only relevant when using NFS and only for the NFS server. |
| 3260 | Allow outbound TCP and UDP connections to this port for communication to block storage. |
| 8071 | Allow outbound connections to the Sisense external monitoring system. |
| 10250 |
Allow inbound TCP and UDP connections to this port for the Kubernetes dashboard and commands such as kubectl logs and kubectl exec. For EKS, AES and GKE need to be open towards the K8S control. |
Inbound Rules for Sisense
The following ports should be opened to your network so you will be able to access the Sisense application, SSH and Kubernetes dashboard:
| Ports | Description |
|---|---|
| TCP 443/30845 | HTTPS/HTTP WEB (SSL/non-SSL mode). These ports should be open to allow your users to access Sisense. |
| TCP 22 | SSH. This port should be opened when your Administrator needs to deploy or upgrade Sisense. |
| TCP 6443 | This port should be opened when your Administrator needs to access the Kubernetes dashboard. |
Cluster Mode
When deploying multiple nodes, the following ports should be opened between each node:
| Ports | Description |
|---|---|
| TCP 2379 - 2380 | etcd |
| TCP 10248 - 10259 | Kubernetes |
| TCP 9100 | Node exporter |
Cluster Network Plugin
Sisense support two cluster network plugins, Calico and Weave. The default network plugin used by Sisense is Calico.
Calico and Weave secure the communication between your nodes. The following ports should be opened:
Calico
| Ports | Description |
|---|---|
| TCP 9099 | Calico |
| TCP 179 | Calico - bird |
Weave
| Ports | Description |
|---|---|
| TCP 6783 | Weave's control and data |
| UDP 6783/6784 | Weave's control and data |
| UDP 4789 | VXLAN |
| TCP 111 | rpcbind |
| TCP 179 | bird |
Cluster Shared File System Implementation
Sisense supports Rook-Ceph for shared storage. Depending on which you use, the following ports should be opened:
Note:
Rook-Ceph is no longer supported as the shared storage layer for new deployments of Sisense Fusion. This Rook-Ceph documentation is intended only for existing Sisense instances configured to use Rook-Ceph. If you’re a new Sisense customer or an existing customer installing a new Sisense deployment, you should use one of the supported alternatives such as FSx (for AWS) or NFS (for non-AWS).
Rook-Ceph
| Ports | Description |
|---|---|
| TCP 9443 | https-webhook |
| TCP 6789-6790 | Ceph messenger protocol v1 |
| TCP 3300 | Ceph messenger protocol v2 |
| TCP 6800 - 7300 | Ceph RADOS ports for OSDs, MDSes |
| TCP 9283 | Ceph Manager Prometheus Metrics |
| TCP 9070 | port for CSIAddons |
FSx
| Ports | Description |
|---|---|
| TCP 988 | NFS |
NFS
Outbound NFS should for the nodes.
| Ports | Description |
|---|---|
| TCP 2049 | NFS |
Load Balancer
If you are using an external load balancer, make sure that the load balancer supports WebSockets.
If you are using Amazon AWS with load balancing, ALB supports WebSockets, ELB does not.
The Classic Load Balancer in AWS does not support WebSockets.
