By default, you can check the MMC that is provided in Windows to get a general view of the replication status. However, this is very basic at best. If you want to see a more detailed view of this all you can go to any of the systems apart of the DFS configuration/replication and run the following command:

C:\dfsrdiag replicationstate /v

Locking down DFS replication to a single port can be done. You can perform the following on both the source and destination server as both need to be configured assuming two-way replication else they will be talking different ports depending on which way the replication is running from:

C:\dfsrdiag staticrpc /port:XXXX /member:YYYY

Do note the following when running the command above:

1. This assumes you ahve installed DFS on the target box
   
2. XXXX - A static port that should be above 1024/TCP should be used
   
3. YYYY - NetBIOS/DNS name of the server requiring the setup. If not specified this assumes the local host will be used

However, there are other ports that are used as part of the overall service. Yu can review the following external link for more information on this all.
