TCP Port Viewer

Allows you to assign an alternate TCP Port number or numbers

for the AlterPath Viewer to use [Default, 5900+]. Use the plus

sign (+) to increment the port number by 1 for each additional

AlterPath Viewer. You might need to assign another port, for

example, if your Internet provider is blocking port 5900. For

example: 5903+ means that the first AlterPath Viewer uses port

5903 and the second uses port 5904. Use the hyphen (-) to

indicate a range of addresses, for example, 5903-5907. Use the

comma (,) to separate two TCP port addresses, for example,

5901,5903. Combine commas and hyphens, as desired, for

example: 1901,5903-5905,5907. Note: Do not use reserved

port numbers 1 through 1024.
