[EAS] IP ports for CAP

[Kluger, Michael]

I'm trying to determine what firewall changes I will need to make for CAP IP traffic when I move from our legacy EAS equipment (with no internet connection) to CAP compatible equipment.  Does CAP us any of the standard IP protocols and ports (such as HTTP via port 80 or SMTP via port 25), or do non-standard ports have to be configured?  Will this vary between equipment manufacturers, or will the port addresses be determined by the CAP server?

Thanks in advance for any information on this.
