Finding the Port Number With Command Prompt

This section describes how to find the port number of the server computer, using Command Prompt.
To find the port number with Command Prompt:
  1. In the Windows search box on the taskbar, type command prompt, then select Command Prompt from the menu.
  2. In the Command Prompt dialog, enter this command:
    netstat -nao | find "TCP" | find "0.0.0.0:" | find "LISTEN"
  3. Press Enter.
    Once the command is executed, you see five columns displayed.
  4. If 0.0.0.0:8080 is not displayed in the second column containing local addresses, make sure that 8080 is entered in the Port Number field.
  5. If 0.0.0.0:8080 is displayed in the second column containing local addresses, choose an integer value greater than 1024 and less than 65535 that is not displayed after the colon. During the installation process, enter the chosen value not displayed after the colon or change it in the desktop application settings.
    Example: If 0.0.0.0:18024 is not displayed in the second column of local addresses, enter 18024.
      Note:
    • You can also change the port number after installing the application, from the desktop application settings. For details, see Server Settings.
For more information, contact your system administrator.
