IBM Security Guardium: Can port number for Windows STAP traffic be customized?

Question & Answer


Question

Can port number used by appliance for Windows STAP be customized? Guardium appliances use port 9500 for clear traffic, and port 9501 for encrypted traffic. Can this be customized to use different port numbers? For example can it be changed so it uses a different port than 9501 for encrypted traffic?

Answer

No, these ports can not be changed. They are hard-coded in the sniffer code.
