Package Associations

Integration Server Administrator's Guide : Configuring Ports : About Ports : Package Associations

All ports are associated with a package. By default, they are associated with WmRoot.

You can associate all port types except the diagnostic port with an application package. By doing so, when you replicate the package, the package continues to use a port with the same number on the new server. This feature is useful if you create an application that expects input on a specific port. The application will continue to work after it is replicated to another server.

Important:

Be careful when setting up a port that is associated with a package. When copied to the target server, the new port might decrease security on that system. For example, suppose you replicate a package that is associated with an HTTP port at 5556. The replication process creates an HTTP port at 5556 on the target server. If the target server normally uses only HTTPS ports because of their greater security, then the new port presents a possible security hole on that server.
