Firewall Information

Learn about the firewall port number and IP addresses of the supported Oracle Cloud Infrastructure regions.

The firewall port number is 443 for all data transfer methods.

Ensure that your local environment's firewall can communicate with the Data Transfer Service running on the IP address ranges for your Oracle Cloud Infrastructure region based on the following table. Also ensure that open access exists to the Object Storage IP address range. You only need to configure this IP access for the region where your data transfer job is associated.
