Difference between web ui, remote management and cert portal

businessuser

I realized that there are default firewall rules in a new firebox.
So what is the difference between web ui, remote management and cert portal?
web ui and remote management seems the same to me.

Not sure why one is port 8080 and another is TCP ports: 4105, 4117, 4118.

Isnt remote management and web ui the same?

The "WatchGuard" rule handles connections from WSM, Management server, and SSH.

The "WatchGuard WebUI" rule handles connections from the WebUI.

There are two management rules to allow customers to configure one, the other, or both however is needed in their environment. If you modify them, ensure you're leaving yourself a way to administer your firewall.

The "WatchGuard Certificate Portal" rule handles connections to the cert portal and will show up if you enable content inspection on any of your policies. Customers interact with this portal to download the proxy authority cert from the firewall.
