I'm looking to identify which tomcat servlets within a Jamf Pro instance are required for each of the following functions:

  • client communication (general communication needed for enrolled endpoints to function, including communication with Apple)
  • API access (both Classic and Jamf Pro)
  • administrative web interface

(with the understanding that a single servlet may fall into multiple categories).

The list of servlets present (as of 10.38) is

I've seen other posts in the past (e.g. https://community.jamf.com/t5/jamf-pro/filter-block-jss-startup-pages/m-p/167166) which suggest that the following servlets are responsible for the admin web interface:

FrontEndController FrontEndUploadController InitializeServer PresentationLayerServlet

but I'm not sure if that is still current, or what is needed for the other two functions. 

The client communication function will need to be exposed to the internet, but I'd prefer to do this in an allow-list format, rather than exposing it by default.
(Note that we would want to apply different controls to the different functions, and we won't simply be restricting by IP as in the linked post)
