#### 6.5.1 `po_ir`

`po_ir` is a standalone server that supports the CORBA Interface Repository. When launched, it returns its `IOR` and `corbaloc`, which can then be used by other CORBA applications.

If you want `po_ir` to return the same `IOR` or `corbaloc` at each startup, you must set a default listen port for the protocol personalities you use. See Configuring protocol personality preferences for more details.
