CA SDM Default and Recommended Port List

The CA SDM installation requires various ports and port ranges to be opened on your firewall. This port information helps your site and security administrators install and configure CA SDM, as well as integrations with other CA Technologies solutions and third-party products.

The ports you need to open on your firewall depend on settings in the NX.env file. By default, CA SDM chooses the appropriate port based on availability. The system reserves ports less than 1024, but can request a port number as high as 65335.

The following NX.env variables set the starting port (2100) and the incremental increase (plus 1) the system uses to find an open port for the process starting up:

The following list displays default and recommended ports (and port ranges) for a typical CA SDM installation:
