About this task
The Scopia XT Desktop Server has designated 10000-65535 as the default port range for UDP
(RTP/RTCP). To provide additional security for your firewall, you can limit this range.
To calculate approximately how many ports the Scopia XT Desktop Server uses, multiply the number of
license connections by 14, which amounts to reserving 14 ports per client.

2. Select Client > Settings.
3. Locate the Multimedia Ports section (see
Figure 8: Multimedia Ports Area on page 18).
