EN security notes

Port clearings

• Firewalls should be configured that at least the following ports are not being blocked if used:

- Ports 3050 and 3051:	communication between Autopoll and the Firebird database server
- Port 21:	Standard service port (FTP) of the card reader Hecstar
- Port 80:	Standard service port (HTTP) for example for MTS-K price reporting to Autopoll
- Port 50835:	Standard service port of the card reader Heconomy
- Port 950:	Default service port of a comport server MOXA
- Port 4001:	Default service port of a comport server Opengear/ACM
- Port 8000:	Default service port of a comport server W&T
- Port 4500:	Default service port of a Mineo-probe polling device (polling as card reader via TCP/IP)
- Port 445:	Port 445 is closely connected to Microsoft-services and is offically named Microsoft-DS (directory services) port. This port is mainly being used for Windows-network-file- and printer-clearances and numerous other functions which require a server-message-block-communication (SMB).

Security features

• All security features (e.g. anti virus software, process scanning software etc.) have to be configured that at least the Autopoll database (with Autopoll V4 = APV4.GDB) is being excluded. Better would be the whole AutopollV4 folder and the whole firebird folder.

Windows system recovery

• The Windows system recovery has to be deactivated or has to be configured that the Autopoll database (with Autopoll V4 = APV4.GDB) and/or the file ending GDB is being excluded.
