Zimbra with Zextras Add-On
ZeXtras Suite needs to bind on TCP port 8735 in order to operate, for inter-instance communication. The ZeXtras Chat module needs to bind on TCP ports 5222 and/or 5223 in order for any XMPP feature to be functional. Please verify no other service listens on these ports and that port 8735 is properly filtered from public access by your firewall.
Zimbra 8.x users might experience slowness and AJAX errors when accessing the Zimbra Administration Console because of the Zimbra DOS Filter. In this case, raising the number of Maximum Requests per Second is suggested (see http://wiki.zextras.com/DosFilter for further information)
