vRealize Suite Lifecycle Manager 1.2 Ports and Protocols, Feature URLs, and Service Account Privileges

Behind the scenes in VMware R&D I have been working closely with the product management and engineering team for vRealize Suite Lifecycle Manager to improve the experience and workflows.

Three questions that I'm often asked are:

  1. What ports and protocols does vRealize Suite Lifecycle Manager use for communications?
  2. What URLs must be accessible by my organization to use some vRealize Suite Lifecycle Manager Features (e.g., My VMware, Marketplace, Product Updates, and the in-product Compatibility Guide)?
  3. What permissions are required for a custom role that can be used as a service account for vRealize Suite Lifecycle Manager to vSphere communications?

Well, you're in luck. I can answer this where the documentation currently falls short.
