SAPINST Remote Installation Ports

[former_member229542]

Hi guys

I would need to install SAP on a Linux Red Hat OS, therefore I'd need to start SAPINST remotely

My concern is regarding ports since client has a very tight port security, then I need to ask to open ports specifically.

My understanding connections between SAPINST running on the Linux Server and SAPInst GUI on Windows runs on ports 21200 and 21212

SAPINST_DIALOG_PORT=<port_number_sapinst_to_gui_server>

SAPinst uses port 21200 to communicate with the GUI server. Is this connection internally on the Linux Server? Or do i need to connect from Windows to Linux on this port?

GUISERVER_DIALOG_PORT=<port_number_gui_server_to_gui_client>

The GUI server uses port 21212 to communicate with the GUI client

21212 is the listening port on the Linux Side where the SAP GUI Client connect to? What is the port on Windows Side?

GUISERVER_HTTP_PORT=<port_number_http_server>

Also, why Installation guide mentions port 4239? Is it possible to install SAP same as running using SUM?

Thanks!
