What ports are necessary for Mosyle MDM enrollment and communication?

The necessary ports for Mosyle MDM enrollment and communication include TCP 5223, TCP 2195, TCP 2196, and TCP 443. Each of these ports plays a critical role in ensuring that devices can properly enroll in the MDM system and communicate with the Mosyle servers.

TCP 5223 is specifically used for Apple Push Notification service (APNs), which is fundamental for sending notifications to devices enrolled in MDM. Without this service, the MDM solution would struggle to communicate effectively with devices, making it challenging to manage them remotely.

TCP 2195 and TCP 2196 are also related to Apple’s notification services. TCP 2195 is used for sending notifications to the APNs, while TCP 2196 is for feedback from the APNs, confirming successful delivery or notifying the server about any issues.

TCP 443 is the standard port for HTTPS traffic, which ensures secure communication between the MDM server and enrolled devices. Encryption over this port protects sensitive data being transmitted.

Together, these ports facilitate essential communication pathways that allow Mosyle MDM to manage devices efficiently and securely. Understanding the role of each port helps in recognizing their importance in overall MDM functionality.
