WMI Connection via diferent port

[Guest]

Hi:

I will greatly appreciate if anyone can help me with the following questions
regarding WMI:

1. Following ports are used for basic WMI operations: RPC TCP 135, 139, 445,
593
Is it possible to specify the port number while making connection?

2. Should all the ports be open (through firewall) or only one open port is
sufficient?

Thanks
