Reasons to Add Additional Ports
You might add additional ports for the following reasons:
If you have applications that require a specific port number.
If you want to support multiple types of listening protocols.
If you want to open several ports for the same protocol.
If you want to deploy your server in a
webMethods Enterprise Gateway configuration, in which an
Enterprise Gateway Server sits in your DMZ and intercepts requests before passing them to the server behind your inner firewall. For instructions on adding
Enterprise Gateway ports, see
Configuring
webMethods Enterprise
Gateway .
