1 - It applies while you use the Resilient Network feature or when NetBackup 8.0 or earlier primary server cannot reach a legacy service via PBX.

2 - This port is used to provide back-level media server support for the media servers that are configured for cloud storage. Only media server versions 7.7.x to 8.1.2 are supported.

Ensure that the older media servers use this port. Communication with the primary server fails if the older media servers use a different port.
