Port

The PORT parameter defines the port number on the server to which the Client daemon connects.

PORT=<number>
Description
Set the value in the range 0 - 65,535. If you specify a value of 0, the services system file is used to locate the port number for the CICS® service using the TCP protocol. If an entry cannot be found in the services system file, a value of 1435 is used. Port 1435 is the number of the port assigned to the Client daemon in the TCP/IP architecture. On Windows platforms, the services system file is in the %windir%\system32\drivers\etc directory and on UNIX platforms, it is in the /etc directory.

This parameter is in the SERVER section of the configuration file.

Default value
If this parameter is not specified, the default value is 0.
Configuration Tool
In the Configuration Tool, you can set the value of PORT in the Port field in the Server connection page. This page can be accessed by selecting an existing server in the CICS Servers section of the CICS Transaction Gateway pane or by creating a server definition. To create a server definition, click Options > New Server or click the New Server icon.
