Network ports configuration

Configure firewalls and ports to ensure successful communication. Review the default values for user-configurable ports and the comprehensive list of ports used by
FactoryTalk Optix
for inbound and outbound connections.
TIP: Ports 80 and 443 may be already configured for devices like OptixPanels and Embedded Edge Compute Module (EECM).
