Today, the only method is to login directly into the VCSA/PSC via SSH (you could also use GuestOps API, so that SSH is NOT required) and fetching this information using iptables. Instead, some customers have inquired about getting a list of all open ports directly from the VCSA/PSC to ensure they have the actual configuration which can be used to build firewall rules and/or for auditing purposes. Having said that, it is may not always be clear on what ports are actually opened as they will usually depend on the type of deployment and the services that are running. The list of required ports for both a vCenter Server Appliance (VCSA) and Platform Services Controller (PSC) are pretty well documented here (6.5), here (6.0) and here (5.5) for customers who require this information to setup external connectivity within their networking infrastructure.
