Configuration Properties
By default, the RMI system chooses random available port numbers for RMI servers. However, this makes it impossible to configure firewalls to allow direct RMI connectivity. Port numbers accepting incoming connections are controlled by configuration properties.
Windchill clients first connect to a server manager, which acts as a broker for service implementations. A Windchill system has only one server manager per server host, and its port number is controlled by the wt.manager.port property in wt.properties. Each server host may have multiple method servers running, so their port numbers are configured as a range controlled by the wt.method.minPort and wt.method.maxPort properties. Default ports include:
wt.manager.port=5002
wt.method.minPort=5003
wt.method.maxPort=5011
To change these defaults, use the xconfmanager utility to set the properties to different values.
