I couldn't find the answer to this online. The KB with the fw ports doesn't mention vmware at all.

When Backup Exec backs up a virtual machine using the vcenter agent, does BE communicate directly with the esxi host or is vcenter acting as a proxy for the backup? If the former, what ports will we need to open to the esxi hosts so the MMS servers can backup VMs?
thanks
EDIT: I just found a different article for the vmware agent. Looks like I need to open TCP ports 443 & 902 from the MMS servers to the ESXI hosts.

That looks a a correct article for the ports wrt to VMware Agent:
For More information about the Ports that are needed in Backup Exec you can refer this Admin Guide page:
