Client Backups Fail with Firewall Enabled

Details

With the Backup Client installed in ESX Server service console, client backups fail with a firewall enabled.

Solution

For BackupExec 11d, do one of the following:
1. Turn down the firewall and run Backup Jobs.
2. Open 10000-10200 range of ports in BackupExec 11d server only.
3. Open 8192-8198 in both BackupExec 11d server and in the service console. (The range of ports opened in this option is less, so this would be better.)
