 Can I use configuration variables templates (application.properties) to define what ports I want added to the instance?

We are trying to configure an instance of webMethods integration server (10.5) using configuration variables templates, in the documentation I've located some helpful information about some of the properties you can specify but I don't see anything regarding how to define a port. For example, if I want to define port 6666 on package NewPortPackage with client authentication set to "request client certificates" using keystore myKeystore, keystore alias myKeyAlias, and trust store alias of myTruststoreAlias I'd expect the related properties that need to go in application.properties would be similar in format to defining an artConnection. 

Defining an artConnection - artConnection.<packageName>.<connectionName>.propertyGroup.property=value

Defining a port? - <prefix>.<packageName>.<portAlias>.propertyGroup.property=value

Manually defining the port on the UI and then generating the Configuration Variables Template does not result in these properties in application.properites. Does that mean it can't be defined?

We've tried things like the following but are really guessing what these properties might be

port.WmRoot.NEWPORT.portNumber=6666
port.WmRoot.NEWPORT.clientAuthentication=request
port.WmRoot.NEWPORT.keystoreAlias=myKeystore
port.WmRoot.NEWPORT.keyAlias=myKeyAlias
port.WmRoot.NEWPORT.truststoreAlias=myTruststoreAlias
