8.5 Server port configuration
The iSTUDIO software default configuration uses by default six defined ports. In combination with some firewalls
which block these port numbers, it might be necessary to change the port numbers.
Changing port numbers
The file /etc/services stores the port configuration. The iS
TUDIO default configuration uses the port numbers
6666, 6767, 7777, 9000, 8882 and 8883. To edit the file, please refer to section
8.1.1 Data access on Hydra. The
relevant entries begin all with bcdhydra.
# Local services
bcdhydra 6666/tcp #internal protocol server
bcdhydra 6767/api #api server
bcdhydra 7777/udp #broadcast
bcdhydra 9000/xml1 #xml server
bcdhydra 8882/xml2 #xml server
bcdhydra 8883/xml3 #xml server
In a system with multiple Hydra modules it is important that each Hydra has the identical
port configuration to maintain good system speed.
