[rabbitmq] What ports does RabbitMQ use?

PORT 4369: Erlang makes use of a Port Mapper Daemon (epmd) for resolution of node names in a cluster. Nodes must be able to reach each other and the port mapper daemon for clustering to work.

PORT 35197 set by inet_dist_listen_min/max Firewalls must permit traffic in this range to pass between clustered nodes

RabbitMQ Management console:

  • PORT 15672 for RabbitMQ version 3.x
  • PORT 55672 for RabbitMQ pre 3.x

PORT 5672 RabbitMQ main port.

For a cluster of nodes, they must be open to each other on 35197, 4369 and 5672.

For any servers that want to use the message queue, only 5672 is required.
