Controlling port number assignments

You can change the port number assignments in either of two ways.

  • Changing a TCP port number assigned to the monitoring server.
  • Using the SKIP and COUNT options on the KDE_TRANSPORT environment variable.

You can also use the POOL option on the KDE_TRANSPORT environment variable to limit connections to a specific range of port numbers.

Tips:
  • If you decide to modify the KDE_TRANSPORT environment variable, it is best to do so under the guidance of IBM Software Support.
  • To change parameters so that they are not overridden when products are reinstalled or reconfigured, use the appropriate override member.
