Ports that are used by the IBM MobileFirst Platform Operational Analytics
When the IBM MobileFirst™ Platform Operational Analytics is started, it listens on port 9600.
- Port 9500 - HTTP Port
- This port can be used for HTTP requests that are made directly to the IBM MobileFirst Platform Operational Analytics. It is not required to be open and should not be accessible from outside the cluster. It is important to protect this port because foreign commands can be sent directly to the IBM MobileFirst Platform Operational Analytics through this port. This port is closed by default. You can open this port by setting the http.enabled JNDI property to true. For more information, see Properties and configurations.
- Port 9600 - Transport Port
- This port is used for communication between nodes in a cluster. This port should be open to other nodes in the cluster for node communication to work properly. This port should also not be accessible from outside the cluster. This port is open by default.
These ports can be changed by using the following JNDI properties:
- httpport
- transportport
The following example shows how you can modify the ports.
<jndiEntry jndiName="analytics/httpport" value="9700" />
<jndiEntry jndiName="analytics/transportport" value="9800" />
