Active Roles Administration Service:
- 15172 (HTTPS) TCP Inbound
- All high ports (1024-65535) on port 15172
- Client machines randomly select high ports to use for outgoing traffic on port 15172 to access the Active Roles Administration Service.
Starling Connect Notifications Pane:
The appropriate port must be open from the client browser inbound to the Active Roles Administration Service hosts.
- 7465 (HTTP) TCP Inbound
- 7466 (HTTPS) TCP Inbound
Synchronization Service:
- 15173 (HTTPS) TCP Inbound
NOTE: If the Synchronization Service is installed on a server without Active Roles, it will also require outbound ports to any source or target connections you configure, such as Active Directory, Active Roles, SQL, Azure, and so on.

- 3269 (Global Catalog LDAP SSL) TCP (Outbound on Active Roles)
- The TCP port allocated by RPC endpoint mapper for communication with the domain controller
- You can configure Active Directory domain controllers to use specific port numbers for RPC communication. For instructions, see this Microsoft Article.
Managed AD LDS instances:
- The TCP port used for LDAP communication with the AD LDS server is configurable in the Add Managed AD LDS Instance Wizard. (Outbound on Active Roles)
Exchange Servers:
- 135 (RPC endpoint mapper) TCP (Outbound on Active Roles)
- The TCP port allocated by RPC endpoint mapper for communication with the Exchange server.

The following ports must be open for operations related to the WinRM service to work:
- 80 (HTTP) TCP (Outbound on Active Roles)
- 5985 (HTTP) TCP (Outbound on Active Roles)
- 5986 (HTTPS) TCP (Outbound on Active Roles)
Access to SMTP sever for e-mail integration:
