Cache Server Ports

This page discusses how to configure the different cache server ports available in NCache for connection requests and server management.

Client/Server TCP Port

Client/Server TCP Port in the service config file will specify the port at which the cache server will listen for the incoming connection requests.

<add key="NCacheServer.Port" value="9800" />

Management Ports

Management Port in the service config file will specify the port at which the cache management server will listen for the incoming connection requests.

<add key="NCacheServer.ManagementPort" value="8250" />

When a cache is started in its own separate process, it is assigned a Management Port (two ports in case of the Partition-Replica topology). These ports are assigned from a range of ports which can be configured by setting the keys listed below. ManagementPortLower is the starting port from which the first free port available will be consumed. The ManagementPortUpper is the upper limit.

<add key="NCacheServer.ManagementPortLower" value="8300" />

<add key="NCacheServer.ManagementPortUpper" value="8400" />

SNMP Listeners Info Port

This tag is used to specify the port on which the SNMP listeners info sub-agent runs. It enables SNMP-based monitoring of cache counters.

<add key="NCacheServer.SnmpListenersInfoPort" value="8256"/>

By default, the value of this is set to 8256, but can be configured as per your requirements.
