If your firewall allows for stateful connections, just allow all outbound from the nagios XI server and only established inbound. Otherwise, installation requires (http,https,ftp,and ssh):
port 21
port 22
port 80
port 443

For deployment an monitoring, the necessary ports all depend on which agents and check you are running . . .
