GetServerPort Method—Retrieves TCP Port for Policy Server or Server Cluster

The GetServerPort method retrieves one of the following:

• For a clustered server, retrieves an array that contains the Policy Server port.
• For a non-clustered server, retrieves an array of the Accounting, Authentication, and Authorization ports, in that order.

Syntax

The GetServerPort method has the following format:

Netegrity::PolicyMgtServer‑>GetServerPort()

Parameters

The GetServerPort method accepts no parameters:

Return Value

The GetServerPort method returns one of the following values:

• An array of host ports
• undef if the call is unsuccessful

Remarks

The single-process Policy Server introduced in SiteMinder v6.0 combines the previously separate Authentication, Authorization, and Accounting processes into one combined process whose requests go through one TCP port. As a result, the ports numbers retrieved in the array are all the same.
