Ports and Services 3
Certain UDP and TCP ports must be open so that View components can communicate with each other.
Knowing which Windows services run on each type of View server helps identify services that do not
belong on the server.

View TCP and UDP Ports
View uses TCP and UDP ports for network access between its components.
During installation, View can optionally congure Windows rewall rules to open the ports that are used by
default. If you change the default ports after installation, you must manually recongure Windows rewall
rules to allow access on the updated ports. See "Replacing Default Ports for View Services" in the View
Installation document.
