Configuring ports

When you configure WebSphere Application Server resources or assign port numbers to other applications, you must avoid conflicts with other assigned ports. In addition, you must explicitly enable access to particular port numbers when you configure a firewall.

Procedure

  1. Review the port number settings, especially when you are planning to coexist.
  2. Optional: Change the port number settings.
    You can set port numbers when configuring the product after installation.
    • During profile creation using the Profile creation wizard, you can accept the port settings recommended by the wizard or you can specify your port settings.
    • During profile creation using the wasprofile command, you can accept the default port values or you can specify your port settings. If you want to specify ports, you can do so in any of the following ways:
      • Specify the use of a port file that contains the port values.
      • Specify the use of a starting port value.
      • Specify the use of the default port values.

    You can change port settings after installation. Edit the profile_root/config/cells/cell_name/nodes/node_name/serverindex.xml file to change the port settings, or use scripting to change the values.
