Are these ports necessary when using cPanel?

Just wondering if ports like these (see below) are necessary on a standard, generic cPanel/CloudLinux server with no special gaming or other software installed? For example, would the Webhost Manager ports need to be opened if only cPanel is being used to manage accounts? Thanks very much. ----------------------------- TCP_IN: 2077, 2078 - IBM Total Productivity Center Server 2086, 2087 - Webhost Manager (also in TCP_OUT) TCP_OUT: 1129 - SAPHostControl over SOAP/HTTPS 2089 - Security Encapsulation Protocol - SEP 2703 - KnowShowGo P2P

  Hello :) You can close the WHM ports if you do not need to access them. Or, you may want to use the "Host Access Control" option so that only specific IP addresses can access it: Host Access Control Thank you.
