2. How to change the Web Server port used by Endpoint Central?

Description

By default, the Endpoint Central server uses port 8383 to complete the following tasks:

  • Access the Web client

This port is chosen during the installation of the Endpoint Central server. You can change the port number after installation, if required.

You have to complete the following tasks to:

  • Change the port numbers in the Endpoint Central server
  • Update the port numbers in the Endpoint Central agents

Warning ! : If the port number is changed in the Endpoint Central Server, ensure that you update the correct port number in Endpoint Central agents. Until this change is done, the agents will keep contacting the previous port number and will not be able to reach the Endpoint Central Server. This would affect the complete desktop management activity.
