The SQL Safe services use specific ports to communicate to each other as well as other SQL Safe components. Before installing SQL Safe, ensure the following ports are available.
| Service | Port for trusted domains | Port for non-trusted domains |
|---|---|---|
| Backup Service | 5164 | 5165 |
| Management Service | 5162 | 5163 |
SQL Safe automatically detects whether its components have been installed in trusted or non-trusted domains.
If your environment requires SQL Safe to use a different port , you can specify a custom port by changing the associated registry key. For more information about how to assign different port numbers, see IDERA Solution 204. To confirm which ports to use, or to verify whether a domain is trusted or not, contact your network administrator.
When you specify a custom port setting for communications in your trusted domain, SQL Safe automatically assigns the non-trusted port (CustomPort + 1). For example, if the custom port is 6000, the port used for communications in non-trusted domains will be 6001.
