But, once the endpoint agent service is started, it does not allow access to selang.

Selang fails to connect to seagent, this has been observed once you have upgraded the UEK kernel (applicable for UEK kernel builds). During our investigation we did observe that seagent kept having errors calling the accept system calls on a IPv6 socket. This seems to be causing the problem when selang attempts to connect to selang. Simply disabing IPv6, however, does not resolve the problem.
The code has been fixed with acpatch-DE558679-12.81.0.4423-_LINUX_X64.zip, which is attached to this KB article. If there is an issue downloading the file, please open a case with Broadcom Support. Any install above 12.81.0.4423 will have this fix included.
