port 8291

I am getting a port blocked by our firewall when the Dude is running.

The dude is 111.244

09/11/06 08:56 http-proxy[711]: [192.168.111.244:2330 192.168.111.1:8291] Error while sending/receiving: Can’t receive data from server (Connection timed out)

The port is 8291

Can someone tell me what this port is used for as it is unassigned in the inana tables.

BTW, the Dude is running smoothly, no errors except what I am seeing in the firewall logs.

I might be completely wrong but that is the winbox port.

You might - but you are completely right :wink:

This is from the winbox description, it does not mention the port I referrenced.

The Winbox Console uses TCP port 3986 (not secure) or 3987 (secure; requires security package to be installed). Make sure you have access to it through the firewall.

That’s the “old” WinBox ports (I think up to and including versions 2.8.x, would have to dig deeper in my mind :wink: ).
