Port the firewall uses for NTP updates.
443
TCP
Used for communication from a client system to the firewall web interface. This is also the port the firewall and User-ID agent listens on for updates when you Enable VM Monitoring to Track Changes on the Virtual Network.
For monitoring an AWS environment, this is the only port that is used.
For monitoring a VMware vCenter/ESXi environment, the listening port defaults to 443, but it is configurable.
