how to setup CEPP.conf for Symantec Data Connector

Hi,

I'm working on setting up a CEPP.conf file for symantec data connector tool installed on Windows server to get audit events from VNX 5300 NAS. The file was created and pushed to DM but the communication between the NAS DM IP and Windows collector server is not happening as it shows "state = HTTP_ERROR" status. I can ping the Windows server IP from the NAS DM but telnet to the ports 80/443 and port 12228 is not working. So it looks like the communication ports are blocked. There is CAVA installed on the Windows server and the service was running on a cavaservice account which is part of the local administrators group on the CIFS server.


Do you guys faced this issue before/ any suggestions ? Any idea what communication port CEPP uses in NAS ?

[nasadmin@CAVNXNAS01_cs0 scripts]$ cat cepp2.conf

We worked with EMC support on this and adjusted this parameter and then it started working fine.

$ server_config server_2 -v "param cepp RPCtype=2"
