Communication between Cypheus and HylaFAX uses port 4559 except for
sending a TIFF file of an outbox fax. HylaFAX sends Cypheus a port
number (any high port 1024-65535) and Cypheus uses this port to send
the TIFF file. Therefore you need to open the firewall in order to
be able to use these ports in your internal LAN.


Best Regards
