Ports

Reference for configuring your network. Only what you use; defaults can be changed in vScope or your proxies.

Inbound to vScope (UI & proxy)

Service	Port	Notes
Browser access (web UI)	TCP 80	Default; configurable during installation
Proxy traffic to main server	TCP 4445	Default; configurable during installation. Proxies initiate the connection

Outbound from vScope (updates, licensing)

For automatic updates, license verifications and support communications, vScope requires internet access to the following services.

Service	URL	Port
License & Billing	https://account.vscope.net	TCP 443
Software Updates	https://dist.vscope.net (CDN)	TCP 443
Report Bug/Secure Upload	https://status.vscope.net	TCP 443
Email (for setup only Mailgun SMTP)	smtp.mailgun.org	TCP 587

For a secure connection, allow outgoing access to the above URLs and ports. vScope can also be operated completely offline within an isolated network.

Discovery: Optional target identification scan

vScope can probe common ports to find targets. Disable if not desired: Disabling port scan.
