Is seperate port required by each Agent? [message #94292] Wed, 28 March 2007 05:27 Go to next message

Hi Experts,

As per TPTP documentation, the client requires only Agent Controller
host name and port number to access the Agents on the remote machine.
When the Agents are launched by the client through Agent Controller,
does the Agents occupy any ports on the host machine to communicate with
the clients? If yes, where can we configure these Agent ports?

Regards,
Krishna

TPTP agents don't occupy any port. A client can access an agent via the
agent controller (AC) through the port that AC is running on.
There are 3 ports that the agent controller occupies:

1) The common port that AC runs on (10002 by default)
2) A port for the security channel (10003 by default if AC is running in
secure mode)
3) A port for file transfer (10005 by default)

These are all configurable via
<agent-controller-home>/config/serviceconfig.xml
You will need to restart AC if you modify the configuration file.

Thanks,
Ali Mehregani

Hi Ali,

Thanks for your response. Can I assume that the Agent Controller will
not occupy 10003 port if we are not in secured mode and 10005 port if we
do not do file transfer? We are doing remote file import, and as I
understand the remote file import will not do a file transfer and hence
does not require 10005. For this use case will the Agent Controller
occupy only 10002?

Regards,
Krishna

Hi Krishna,
New Agent Controller uses port 10006 by default.
Backward compatability level uses ports 10002 and 10005 (and 10003 if
security is enabled). It is configured in serviceconfig.xml file.
You could suppress Backward compatibility by commenting corresponding
section out in the config file.

Regards,
Igor

Hi Igor,

Thanks a lot for your response. I was able to see these ports by
using "netstat -a" command on windows.

Regards,
Krishna
