Ports required for Azure DevOps Server
TFS 2015
Your firewall controls network ports, but Azure DevOps Server requires port access. You must ensure that your firewall does not block Azure DevOps Server from the ports it requires.
Firewalls
If you are using Windows Firewall and it is configured to allow exceptions, the installation wizard for Azure DevOps Server opens the ports that Azure DevOps Server requires. If Windows Firewall is configured not to allow exceptions, you should configure it to allow exceptions during the installation of Azure DevOps Server. Otherwise, you'll have to manually open the ports that Azure DevOps Server requires. For more information, see How to configure Windows Firewall on a single computer.
If you are using some other firewall product, you should check its documentation to determine how to open the ports that Azure DevOps Server requires.
Required ports for SQL Server
The following table specifies the TCP ports that SQL Server requires.
| Server or Application Context | TCP Port |
|---|---|
| SQL Service (Database Engine) | 1433¹ |
| SQL Browser Service (Database Engine) | 1434 |
| SQL Server Analysis Services Redirector | 2382 |
| SQL Server Analysis Services | 2383 |
| SQL Server Reporting Services | 80 |
¹ SQL Server uses port 1433 for the default instance. For named instances, SQL Server uses a dynamic port that the operating system assigns. Use SQL Server Configuration Manger to determine the SQL Server port number for any named instances. For more information, see this page on the Microsoft website: Configuring the Windows Firewall to allow SQL Server access.
Report Server port requirements
You must ensure that the report server contains an exception in Windows Firewall for Windows Management Instrumentation (WMI) if the report server is not on the server that is running Azure DevOps Server. The instructions for completing this task differ based on the operating system that you are using. If you are using Windows Server 2003 or Windows Server 2003 R2, see Connecting through Windows Firewall. If you are using Windows Server 2008, Windows Server 2008 R2, Windows Vista, or Windows 7, see Connecting to WMI remotely starting with Windows Vista.
Required ports for SharePoint Products
The table in this section specifies the TCP ports that SharePoint Foundation uses if it is installed by the installation wizard for Azure DevOps Server.
These port numbers might be different for existing deployments of SharePoint Products. You can determine which port numbers SharePoint Products uses by opening Internet Information Services (IIS) Manager and looking at the properties of the websites. For more information, see Verify SharePoint Products for Azure DevOps Server.
| Server or Application Context | TCP Port |
