Router ports and server IPs for XBox beta on PC

Ari D · May 2, 2020

Hello,

I know there is a list of ports to NAT forward from the router to the XBox.

What is the list of the ports for XBox beta on PC?

Additionally, if there is also a list of server IPs that would be really helpful to limit who can make connections through those ports.

Thanks,

Ari

OK, thank you. I had previously found that list of ports with a web search, but wasn't clear on whether XBox on PC used the same ports, or different, or even required any.

So I take it from the reply that the list of ports for XBox beta on Windows 10 is the same:

Port 53 (UDP and TCP)
Port 80 (TCP)
Port 88 (UDP)
Port 500 (UDP)
Port 3074 (UDP and TCP)
Port 3544 (UDP)
Port 4500 (UDP)

Is a list of server IPs available as well?

I ask because, if I was to open up port forwarding, or even UPnP, I'd like to use my firewall's abilities to limit it to only the ports and IPs needed. (NAT'd ports open up a hole through the firewall to the machine they're pointing to, and UPnP has had
security problems in the past so I could anticipate it may again in the future.)

Is a list of server IPs that would be making connections through those ports to XBox available?

Thanks again,

Ari

you wont be able to get a list of server ip's. but upnp is pretty safe these days, i use windows built in firewall too. there should be no reason to port forward on the pc as the games will use pnp top open only the ports it needs at the time it needs
them.

Ideally, you should enable UPnP on your broadband router. This will allow Xbox to tell the router what ports it needs to have forwarded, when it needs them, so everything works automatically with no further fuss. If that's not possible, there's a list of
Xbox Live ports here:

your xbox or PC need a static IP Adress. Look at your Router and look what Adress your PC gets. Then go to DHCP Reservations and give this IP always to your MAC Adress. The Port Forwarding should now take this IP Adress. Then it will work. The Router can´t
use UPnP so you need to Forward ports.

All you need is a router with 12 free IP address.

When you say they are going to be linked to a server is this for internet where the PC will be the gateway for the machines.

If you can not find a router with 12 ports for LAN then you will need to use a switch in between them that will hook to router.

If the server is running DHCP you will not need to use a router and a switch will work just fine.
