Ports used by AutoVu™ applications in Security Center

When AutoVu™ is enabled in your system, you need to create additional firewall rules to allow proper communication between Security Center and external AutoVu™ components.

IMPORTANT: Exposing Security Center to the Internet is strongly discouraged without hardening your system first. Before exposing your system, implement the advanced security level described in the Security Center Hardening Guide to help protect your system from Internet threats. Alternatively, use a trusted VPN for remote connections.
