I would ask another VMWare person to confirm this, but from what I've seen in past and based on the source code, CS automatically creates firewall rules and executes them directly on VCenter - it does so repeatedly - on various instances (add host to clusters, disable or enable host or cluster, etc..)
So while the config is helpful, in my opinion, it's not necessary. > -----Original Message----- > From: Jason Cadmus [mailto:jdcad...@gmail.com] > Sent: Monday, April 15, 2013 11:47 AM > To: dev@cloudstack.apache.org > Subject: Re: [DOC] Opening vncextras firewall ports in ESXi 5.1 > > Ilya, please review > https://cwiki.apache.org/confluence/display/CLOUDSTACK/Configure+vncex > tras+and+nfsClient+ESXi+firewall+ports > > Thanks > JC > > > On Mon, Apr 15, 2013 at 11:12 AM, Musayev, Ilya <imusa...@webmd.net> > wrote: > > > Jason, > > > > Please point me to where you begin this effort. > > > > For VNC and vSphere: > > This is hardcoded within CS.
