What are the specific network ports that should be open on my internet connection broadband to enable the following:

1.) Pairing of HomePod with iPhone.

2.) Downloading and updating of watchOS.

I have already checked the following links, but they do not provide the details for the above mentioned port requirements:

https://support.apple.com/en-us/HT202944

The ports mentioned for Airplay and Homekit etc in these links are already open, yet I am unable to perform the activities mentioned. iPhone is already updating on the network, but watchOS is not updating on same network. Changing network completes both activities.
Please help.
