Description
In customer environments using the Tanium Zone Server, a Tanium Client may be configured to point to a Zone Server instead of a Tanium Server. The communication requirements for these Clients are identical to the Server-to-Client requirements.

ℹ️ Check
Note: If a Zone Server is not being used, this is Not Applicable.
Consult with the Tanium System Administrator to verify which firewall is being used as a host-based firewall on the Tanium Zone Server.
Access the host-based firewall configuration on the Tanium Zone Server.
Validate a rule exists for the following:
Port Needed: Tanium Clients to Zone Server over TCP port 17472.
If a host-based firewall rule does not exist to allow TCP port 17472, bi-directionally, from Tanium Clients to the Tanium Zone Server, this is a finding.
✔️ Fix
Configure host-based firewall rules as required, to include Tanium Clients to Zone Server over TCP port 17472.
