Verify Requirements and Ports › TCP/IP Port Reservation

TCP/IP Port Reservation

We recommend that you reserve these TCP/IP ports:

• CA CSM application server HTTP port
• CA DSI Server port
• CA CSM application server redirect port
• CA CSM application server shutdown port

To reserve the ports, update the z/OS TCP/IP profile data set.

Example:

PORT      Application ID
22120 TCP MSMTC* ; CA CSM Application Server HTTP port
22130 TCP MSMTC* ; CA DSI server port
22140 TCP MSMTC* ; CA CSM Application server redirect port
22150 TCP MSMTC* ; CA CSM application server shutdown port

Note: We recommend that for security reasons you use an 8-character-long Application ID instead of using asterisks (*), as shown in the example in this section. To change MSMTC to an 8-character-long job name, edit the CA CSM startup JCL (RunTimeMVSHLQPrefix.JCL(MSMTCSRV)). Then, change MSMTC* to the same 8-character-long job name in the z/OS TCP/IP profile data set.

If you use a 5-character-long name for your CA CSM application server, you must use an asterisk (*) against the CA DSI Server port number definition because of a unique sequence number that is appended to the Application ID.
