The FAQ only says 5253 ( https://kb.netgear.com/31224/ReadyDR-FAQ ) If you're certain it needs the http/https ports forwarded, can you request that the FAQ be updated?
FWIW, I think that requiring http/https to be forwarded would be a non-starter for lots of folks, as it opens up the possibility of someone gaining administrative access to the NAS over the internet. Also, it prevents http/https from being used to reach another server.
