Subject: IBM IP Addresses / Ports
A couple of my customers have put requirements it to lock down
inbound/outbound communications in their firewalls to only known addresses.
I've been asked for a list of IBM IPs and ports that need to be open.  I've
compiled the following list.  Does anyone know of any others that I need to
add?  I can't find any specific information on ESS but I suspect that's
because IBM only uses Download Director for that function.  Here's the list
so far:  ( I tried to format it so all the mail clients won't mess it up )
