Summary A fixed port range will not affect the system speed
Article Number 28709
Environment Orbacus-Orbix-Orbix Std C /Java Dev-Other-HP Itanium
Question/Problem Description Will setting a fixed port range affect the system speed?
Will fixing a port range using the policies:iiop:server_address_mode_policy:port_range and policies:iiop:client_address_mode_policy:port_range have an affect on the processing speed of a client or server?

Clarifying Information A client is using the configuration:

policies:iiop:server_address_mode_policy:port_range="40001:52400";
policies:iiop:client_address_mode_policy:port_range="52401:60000";
plugins:iiop:ip:reuse_addr="false";


to fix the usable port ranges for their server. This configuration will help them setup allowable ports on their firewall. 
Error Message
Defect/Enhancement Number
Cause
Resolution This does not have any affect on the performance of the client or server since this is only done once at connection establishment or POA manager activation time.
