    I have some clients which are kept behind a firewall and SEP Manager outside the firewall. What settings needs to be done on firewall for the clients to communicate with the Manager outside the firewall.

    Open the communication port that is used by IIS. By default, this is port 8014.

    Thats correct !!
    open the following ports in the firewall for the Client to communicate

    8014 --> communication port
    9090 --> Webconsole port

    Which communication ports does Symantec Endpoint Protection 11.0 use?

    Remember most of the  communication ports are configurable at the time of implementation.This doc will tell you the default ports.If you had made some changes you have to take care of that also...

    Does port 8014 have to be bi-directional or only inbound to the SEPM's?

    Should be Bi-Directional as clients will communicating to and fro as well as server will be communicating to and fro.

    You might also need to open ports 135 to 137 for Netbios and so forth for the clients.  (possibly)

    Thanks, I currently only have 8014 inbound to the SEPM's and everything seems to be working correctly.
