Get-PatchBaseline network port?

Does Get-PatchBaseline and New-PatchBaseline use a different port to communicate to vCenter and VUM compared to other PowerCLI cmdlets?

I'm trying to use a script I have used multiple times in our internal environment against a vCenter in a much more locked down environment.  We have port 80 and 443 open from the management server to vCenter and I can run most PowerCLI commands, but these are giving me an error about not being able to connect.  I expect I'll need another firewall rule, but couldn't find any documentation about it using a different port.

Afaik, the VUM SOAP port is TCP 8084.

So I assume the PowerCLI VUM cmdlets require that port be open (next to TCP 443)

Port 8084 did it.  Had the firewall opened on that port and I can now manage baselines.
