Port sharing among services
Some services require a unique port. Other services can share their port but require a different attribute, such as the IP address and protocol.
No port sharing
The following services require unique ports. If you change the default port, make sure it's unique.
| Service | Default port | Protocol |
|---|---|---|
| Web admin console | 4444 | TCP |
| User portal | 4443 | TCP |
Port sharing with restrictions
WAF, VPN portal, and SSL VPN can share their ports with some restrictions.
Protocols and ports
See the default ports assigned to the sevices and the protocols they can use:
| Service | Default port | Protocol |
|---|---|---|
| WAF | 443 | TCP |
| VPN portal | 443 | TCP |
| SSL VPN | 8443 | TCP or UDP |
VPN portal can share its IP address, port, and protocol with SSL VPN.
Note
If the VPN portal and SSL VPN share the same port, login security settings won't work. See Login security.
WAF requirements
When you configure WAF, make sure it's different in at least one of the following attributes from the other two services (VPN portal and SSL VPN):
- WAN IP address
- Port
- Protocol
How to ensure different attributes
When you assign an IP address, allow zone access, or change the ports for these services, ensure there's a difference in one of the following attributes between WAF and the other two services.
| VPN portal | SSL VPN | |
|---|---|---|
| WAF | WAN IP address Port | WAN IP address Port Protocol |
Note
WAF and VPN portal only use TCP. SSL VPN can use TCP and UDP.
