Trying to add a more Simulators (as a service) on a second server to connect to the remote registry, the Simulator is getting shut down after a few minutes and seeing the below errors.

Able to start Simulator as a server component but not as a service.

Environment

Release : 10.7 and later

Cause

Firewall on the second Simulator server causing the issue.

Resolution

Adding the Inbound and Outbound rules in Firewall for SimulatorService as in below screenshot should resolve the issue.
