IPFS nodes connect to each other using a Libp2p module called "switch" (aka "swarm"). This module operates over a websocket, on port `4001` by default, as well as port `4011`. The websocket port must be accessible to the internet so your Ceramic node can be connected to the network, i.e. not blocked by a firewall. In addition, the port must match the swarm address announced by IPFS. !!! warning ""
