Issue

In one of my first tests with a replica I noticed that there was communication from the replica to "First server" on tcp port 8080 when using the UI on the replica to look at the certificate information. So I had to open this tcp port in the firewall.
This information was not in the manual.
Currently it does not seem to need that port to be open anymore (at least I am not able to reproduce this issue with the current updates). However the port is still used by a Java process and active. I am in the process of documenting the setup and want to know if this port is still needed.
