Unwired Server Port is Not Accessible from a Remote Machine

Problem: A port in the Sybase Unwired Platform environment is not accessible from a remote machine.

Explanation: This may indicate the machine is configured with more than one Ethernet adapters/IP addresses. Consequently a service port on Unwired Server may be configured with an IP address that is not accessible from the remote machine.

Solution:

  1. From the command line, issue ipconfig to find out more information.

  2. Check for multiple Ethernet adapters and IP addresses assigned to the machine.
  3. Disable any unidentified Ethernet networks.
  4. Retry connecting to the port from the remote machine.
