PingAccess

Increasing the number of available ephemeral ports

Increase the number of available ephemeral ports to prevent deployment issues, particularly in high capacity environments.

About this task

This setting increases the performance and capacity of network, specifically the TCP socket, connectivity, enabling PingAccess to handle a high volume of concurrent requests.

Steps

  1. View the ephemeral ports with the netsh int ipv4 show dynamicportrange tcp command.

  2. Increase the ephemeral ports with the netsh int ipv4 set dynamicport tcp start=1025 num=64510 command.

  3. Reboot the machine.

  4. View and confirm the updated port range with the netsh int ipv4 show dynamicportrange tcp command.
