IS on UNIX - Port < 1024

  • 1.  IS on UNIX - Port < 1024

    Posted Tue December 02, 2014 01:28 AM

    Hello,

    I see in the SAG document - If your Integration Server runs on a UNIX system, using a port number below 1024
    requires that the server run as “root.”

    Could anyone please explain this?

    Thanks,
    Sundar

    Unlike Windows Unix (Flavors use ports less than 1024 for system/internal OS process use. and they are mostly controlled by root user.

    So , recommended or best practice is to use port > 1024
