Port Number Reference

Change Sybase Unwired Platform component port numbers as needed postinstallation.

Proceed with caution when changing port numbers because the change might impact other configuration files that point to that port. You need to be aware of the default Sybase Control Center port numbers so you do not accidentally use these ports when you change Sybase Unwired Platform ports. You can change some Sybase Control Center default ports, but, in some cases, you should not.

Note: To make Unwired Server port number changes, you need to temporarily stop the other service consuming those ports so that Unwired Server can start properly, make the change using Sybase Control Center, and then restart.
Port Description Default port How to change postinstallation
OpenDS LDAP server Developer Editions only. Port number on which the OpenDS LDAP server listens for requests.

The default administrator password for the LDAP server is secret.

10389

Edit the ds-cfg-listen-port: 10389 property in <UnwiredPlatform_InstallDir>\Servers\UnwiredServer\OpenDS\config\config.ldif.

Note: If you change the port, remember to change the edit Provider URL property.
Data Tier (CDB) server Port number for the data tier that manages transactions between the enterprise information system and mobile devices

5200

Do not change the CDB port.

See System Administration > Environment Setup > Databases > Changing a CDB Port in a Clustered Environment.

Management ports IIOP port number on which the Unwired Server listens for requests

2000

2001 for secure management (disabled by default)

Configure in Sybase Control Center by expanding the Servers > <ServerName> folder and selecting Server Configuration. In the General tab, select the Communication Ports subtab and enter a new management port or secure management port, as required.

See Sybase Control Center online help > Configuring > Configuring Unwired Platform > Unwired Server > Server Properties > General Server Ports > Configuring Communication Port Properties.

Data Change Notification (DCN) Port numbers on which Sybase Control Center listens for requests

8000 for HTTP

8001 for HTTPS

Configure in Sybase Control Center by expanding the Servers > <ServerName> folder and selecting Server Configuration. In the General tab, select the Communication Ports subtab and enter a new DCN port or secure DCN port, as required.

See Sybase Control Center online help > Configuring > Configuring Unwired Platform > Unwired Server > Server Properties > General Server Ports > Configuring Communication Port Properties.

Replication-Based Synchronization (RBS) and Messaging-Based Synchronization (MBS)

Port numbers on which Unwired Server synchronizes data between the enterprise information system and mobile devices

MBS port uses a proprietary encryption method, so MBS communication is always encrypted.

2480 for RBS

2481 for RBS (secure)

5001 for MBS

Configure in Sybase Control Center by expanding the Servers > <ServerName> folder and selecting Server Configuration. In the Replication or Messaging tab, select the Synchronization Listener subtab and enter a new synchronization port, as required.

Note: If there is a port conflict for 2480 or 2481, Unwired Server cannot start. This means you cannot use SCC to modify these ports. Therefore, you need to temporarily stop the other service currently using 2480 and start Unwired Server so that you can change the required ports in SCC.

For RBS, see Sybase Control Center online help > Configure > Configuring Unwired Platform > Unwired Server > Server Properties > Replication > Configuring General Synchronization Properties.

For MBS, see Sybase Control Center online help > Configure > Configuring Unwired Platform > Unwired Server > Server Properties > Messaging > Configuring Messaging Synchronization Properties .

Advantage Database Server Port number for the messaging database 6262

Port changes are not recommended.

Messaging server administration Port number for the messaging service for Sybase Messaging Clients

5100 for administration services

Not alterable through the Sybase Control Center.

Use the <<UnwiredPlatform_InstallDir>>\Servers\Messaging Server\Bin\AdminWebServicesTool.exe command line tool to change the messaging service Web service port. This tool has built in online help describing how to use the tool. From the command prompt run:

<UnwiredPlatform_InstallDir>\Servers\Messaging Server\Bin>AdminWebServicesTool.exe set=<port> restart

Sybase Control Center Additional default port numbers of which to be aware, when modifying port numbers

9999 for default RMI agent port

2100 for default JMS messaging service port

3638 for default SCC repository database port

8282, 8283 for default Web container ports

  • 9999 – default RMI agent port. The port is set in:

    <<UnwiredPlatform_InstallDir>>\SCC-XX\services\RMI\service-config.xml

  • 2100 – default JMS Messaging Service port. The port is set in:

    <<UnwiredPlatform_InstallDir>>\SCC-XX\services\Messaging\service-config.xml

  • 3638 – default SCC Repository database port. The default port is set in:

    <<UnwiredPlatform_InstallDir>>\SCC-XX\services\SccSADataserver\service-config.xml

  • 8282, 8283 – default Web Container ports. The default ports are set in:

    <<UnwiredPlatform_InstallDir>>\SCC-XX\services\EmbeddedWebContainer\service-config.xml

Before you make any changes to these files, stop Sybase Unified Agent service. Start the service after you complete the changes. If any of the sub-systems fail to start, check the SCC agent.log for error messages.

Relay Server Port numbers on which Relay Server listens for requests

80 for HTTP

443 for HTTPS

Edit <<UnwiredPlatform_InstallDir>>\Servers\UnwiredServer\config\relayserver.properties. Run regRelayServer.bat after editing the file. Ensure that the Web server (IIS or Apache) is configured with these ports specified in relayserver.properties:
  • relayserver.http_port = 80
  • relayserver.https_port = 443

See System Administration > System Reference > Command Line Utilities > Relay Server Utilities > Register Relay Server (regRelayServer) Utility.

Afaria Server Port number on which Afaria Server listens for requests

4041 for HTTP

4444 for HTTPS

4343 for Afaria Database

3007 for XNET

3008 for XNETS

Modify Afaria Server default ports through the Afaria Administrator Web interface, which is launched from Sybase Control Center after you register the Afaria Server.

See System Administration > Environment Setup > Afaria Setup for information about setting up Afaria Server in the Sybase Unwired Platform environment.
