Change the Active Directory Connector port number

By default, port 8015 is used to communicate Active Directory information between the Exinda Active Directory Connector and the connected Exinda appliances. You should change the port number only if a conflict necessitates the change. If you change the port on the Connector, you must change the port on each Exinda appliances also.

Note

Ensure the firewall on the server running the Exinda Active Directory Connector is configured to allow inbound and outbound traffic on the configured port.
