Configuring NetVault SmartDisk

Configuring NetVault SmartDisk ports for communication with your software

By default, NetVault SmartDisk uses port 37453 to communicate with vRanger instances that are streaming data to the NetVault SmartDisk Device. It also uses port 37451 for Inter Process Communication (IPC) on the loopback interface, but not for remote connections.

 
* 
NOTE: If you intend to use different ports, Quest recommends that you make the applicable change to the port setting on the NetVault SmartDisk Instance before you add the NetVault SmartDisk repository to vRanger. You can update the port that communicates with your software at any time.
