Hello Patrick,

This is full RESTfull-API over HTTPS (443).

Dear Ferry,

Just to clarify it is from ADC to ADC Manager on tcp/443 only?

The configuration for the manager is done on the ADC to connect to the ADC Manager (GUI or CLI).

So ADC Manager does not connect back to ADC?

Hello Patrick,

Communication (HTTPS) is initiated from ADC to ADC-mgr upon registration. Management/Configuration connections are initiated from ADC-mgr to ADC (HTTPS).

In case you enable central logging then expect syslog (UDP/514) from ADC to ADC-mgr.
