AlterPath OnSite Administrators and Users Guide
The TCP port numbers for serial ports are used when a user connects to a
serial port using telnet or another connection protocol or when a user
connects to the serial port through the Web Manager. When a user connects to
a serial port, the Java applet uses the TCP port that is assigned to the port
number, for example port 7001 is assigned to serial port 1.
The TCP port numbers for KVM ports are used by the AlterPath Viewer when
a user connects to a KVM port over the network. By default, when a user
connects to a KVM port over the network, the AlterPath Viewer uses port
5900. If a second IP module exists, port 5901 is used for the second AlterPath
Viewer launched over IP. You can assign a different port number or numbers
through the OSD or the web management interface. Do not assign reserved
TCP port numbers 1 through 1024.
