Port Usage iOS MDM Profile Manager

I have MDM

a Profile Manager

customized targeted to iOS and OSX-customers.
Everything works fine on my home network. Now I would like to apply this in my company.

From Apple Support website :

Port 2195 , 2196 - TCP - used by the profile manager to send push notifications
Port 5223 - TCP - used to maintain a persistent connection with the APN and receive push notifications
Port 80/443 - TCP - used by the profile manager to send push notifications
Port 1640 - TCP - Certificate Access to access certificate

For security reasons, I have to specify which of these ports is used to receive data and which one is used to send data (or both). Can anyone provide me with this information?

If my memory is correct ...

  • 2195, 2196: Outgoing from your MDM to Apple
  • 5223: Outgoing from your MDM to Apple and outgoing / incoming from your client device to Apple
  • 80/443: Outbound from your MDM to Apple and your client device, outbound / inbound on your client device, to your MDM (assuming your MDM is running on these ports)
  • 1640: I'm not familiar with this. I would have to assume that it was sent from your client device to your CA.


Have you tried monitoring your traffic on your MDM and iOS devices to determine the original port flow? Apple often says, "Just open ports XX: YY and you're good," which obviously doesn't translate into reality.
