| Component | Computer | Firewall Setting | Notes |
| Setup | Any | Allow outbound HTTP connections | To access the documentation that is available from the Setup wizard, you must be able to connect to the Internet from the computer where you are running Setup. |
| Database or Model Store | Database Server | Exclude the port used by SQL Server (1433 by default) | For more information, refer to the SQL Server documentation. |
| Application Object Server (AOS) | AOS Server | - Exclude the TCP/IP port used by the AOS (2712 by default)
Setup automatically creates the inbound rule "Dynamics AX 6.0 -MicrosoftDynamicsAX (RPC)" for the TCP/IP port. - Exclude the services WSDL port used by the AOS (8101 by default)
Setup automatically creates the inbound rule "Dynamics AX 6.0 -MicrosoftDynamicsAX (WSDL)" for the WSDL port. - Exclude the services endpoint port used by the AOS (8201 by default)
Setup automatically creates the inbound rule "Dynamics AX 6.0 -MicrosoftDynamicsAX (NetTCP)" for the services endpoint port. | Windows Firewall must be enabled on the computer. Each AOS instance must use a different port number. NOTE: By default, each time you install an additional AOS instance on a computer, the TCP/IP port number and the Services endpoint port numbers increment by one. For example, the second AOS instance on a computer would be assigned to TCP/IP port 2713 by default. |
| Client | Client Workstation | Exclude Ax32.exe. | The client uses a TCP port to connect to the AOS. |
| Business Intelligence Components | Reporting Server | Exclude the port used by Reporting Services virtual directories, if other than port 80. | |
| Business Intelligence Components | Analysis Server | - Exclude the port used by Analysis Services (2383 by default)

| For more information about configuring access to Analysis Services through Windows Firewall, refer to the SQL Server documentation on MSDN. |
