Resolving port conflict

Default port usage

By default SmartDFE uses the following ports:

Change HarlequinDirectPort

The port for Harlequin Direct is defined when a HarlequinDirect instance is created in SPC UI, (Engineer → System → Harlequin Direct Servers).

ScreenProDirect is automatically assigned the two port numbers below the value given to HarlequinDirect; you cannot assign these independently.

Change CLRIP port 

1. Run Resource Monitor (resmon.exe).
      Under network, open the "Listening Ports" section.
      Sort by Port, look at the regions SmartDFE uses to check they are clear.

2. Change clrip port.
      Edit: C:\SPCHD\SW\RIPFarmConfig\ripfarm_global.json
        Look for "BasePort" (around line 41)
        Change the value to a number where there is a gap in the "ports used" list (as reported by the Resource Manager).

3. Copy to ripfarm_global.json the HarlequinDirect folder: c:\SPCHD

4. Restart servers.
