Summary How many listen ports are used by Orbix services?
Article Number 16549
Environment All Supported Operating Systems Orbix 6.3.4
Question/Problem Description How many listen ports are used by Orbix services?
Clarifying Information
Error Message
Defect/Enhancement Number
Cause
Resolution Each Orbix service (locator, node daemon, naming service, etc) is opening a service specific  listener port. Further it can allocate several listener ports used for internal communication, the communication with the node daemon, for the PSS communication, etc.
Ports not explicitly configured are kernel-assigned and can change from run to run.
Workaround
Notes Below is a typical example of port usage for Orbix services in a configuration repository based domain with Naming Service and Notification Service configured:

CRF (itconfig_rep)
Port     POAs
33292  RootPOA
33293  it_pss_db
33294  it_ots_lite_transaction_factory_poa
33295  CFR specific, config change listener
3077    CFR specific

Locator (itlocator)
Port     POAs
33607  RootPOA
33608  it_pss_db
33609  it_ots_lite_transaction_factory_poa
3075    Locator specific

Node daemon (itnode_daemon)
Port     POAs
33610  RootPOA
33611  Node daemon specific, activator plugin POA
33612  it_pss_db
33613  it_ots_lite_transaction_factory_poa
3079    node daemon specific

Naming Service (itnaming)
Port     POAs
33615  RootPOA
33616  it_pss_db
33617  it_ots_lite_transaction_factory_poa
3083    Naming Service specific

Notification Service (itnotify)
Port     POAs
33618  RootPOA
33625  Notification specific, channel-0, consumer-0, supplier-0
3089    Notification specific, EventChannelFactory
