I would like to install clients in another forest and I do not want to download the client installation source files from the management point. How do I go about that? Also, please let me know what ports should be open for client communication between two forests.
You need to copy client installation source files from the management point server in the client’s forest onto a file server. When the installation starts then using CCM setup properties or source path. In the <installation path> under client folder on the configuration manager the client installation source files are located.
Now you need to open mainly four ports for client communication between two forests. They are: local ports 1024-4999, port 2967, port 2968 and local ports 1024-5000.
