The ports available to a CORBA application can be specified in the domain's configuration using IIOP policies.

Specifically, the configuration variables are:

 

  policies:iiop:client_address_mode_policy:port_range

 

and

 

  policies:iiop:server_address_mode_policy:port_range

 

The IIOP policy "server_address_mode_policy:port_range" sets the ports available to an Orbix server. Similarly, the IIOP policy "client_address_mode_policy:port_range" sets the ports available to an Orbix client.

 

Example:

  policies:iiop:client_address_mode_policy:port_range="4003:4008";

  policies:iiop:server_address_mode_policy:port_range="5003:5008";

 

Alternatively, the "well_known_addressing" policy can also be used to specify the ports used by an Orbix application. Please note, if this policy is set, the above port-ranges are ignored.
