Private Networking (AHV)
Customers using Nutanix AHV infrastructure can create a Frame account using Customer-managed networking, Private Networking so users must access the Frame workload VMs using the private IP addresses of the Frame workload VMs. Since the Frame workload VMs have no public IP addresses, the customer must provide a network path between the end user and the private Frame workload VMs. Customers will need to ensure these workload VMs can communicate to the Frame control plane on the Internet.
FRP7 Networking​
FRP7 is a tcp-based protocol for all communication between the end user and the Frame workload VMs.
The following table describes the required protocols and ports for Frame accounts using Private Networking and FRP7 with the commercial Frame control plane.
