Assigning a port value to support a firewall

Assigning a value to the port in Installation Manager is necessary in firewall situations.

Do not assign a value to this port unless your administrator instructs you to do so. To learn more about IBM Rational® licensing and firewalls, see Using floating licenses with a firewall. The following procedure assumes the license administrator has provided you the Rational vendor port value.

To assign a port value on a client:
  1. In the Installation Manager, click File > Open > Manage Licenses.
  2. Select a version of a package, and then select Configure Floating license support.
  3. For each server you have specified in the table, click Edit.
  4. Type the required value in Port. Do not assign a value to this port unless your administrator instructs you to do so.
  5. Click OK.
  6. Click Next > Finish.
