    In addition, if you are using other servers/clients with the ConfigMgr console, you have to enable the communication for them too.

    Keep in mind here that Remote Assistance is not a ConfigMgr feature. ConfigMgr just facilitates some basic configuration of Remote Assistance. Thus, to validate, are you really talking about remote control? Also, to clarify, both methods are peer to peer methods and do not directly involve any server infrastructure thus no additional ports need to be open on any site server or site system.
