Infrastructure provisioning must accommodate all ports required by
Unwired Platform runtime components.
To accommodate Unwired Platform ports, you may need to:
- Configure personal firewalls or host-based intrusion protection
(HIPS) to allow access to component ports. See Handling
Intrusion Detection/Prevention Software in the Security guide.
-
Configure Unwired Platform servers to
change port number assignments.
-
You can change default port assignments for
Unwired Platform
server components and Sybase Control Center during installation.
-
You cannot change assignments of
Unwired Platform reserved ports. For
a complete list, see Reserved Ports.
Note:
If there is a conflict for port 2480 or 2481, Unwired Server will not
start,
and
you cannot use Sybase Control Center
to change those Unwired Server ports.
You
must temporarily stop the service that uses the conflicting port, then
start Unwired Server so you can change the port
assignment from Sybase Control Center.
-
Reserve ephemeral ports on
Unwired Platform
hosts
to prevent
other
processes
from using them.
Note:
Even if the installer does not detect a conflict, the
Windows operating system may later use additional ports in the 1024 –
65535 range. In that event, you may encounter intermittent problems
starting Unwired Platform services.
See
the Microsoft operating system documentation to learn how
to reserve ephemeral ports.
