The Communicator is responsible for agent and server communication.
By default, the Communicator uses port 10198 for communication between Control Manager processes (internal communication) and port 10319 for communication between the Control Manager agent and server (external communication).
Changing the external communication port is a two-step process. To change the external communication port:
1. From the Control Manager server, perform the following:
Open <root>\Program Files\Trend Micro\COMMON\ccgi\commoncgi\config\CCGI_Config.xml using a text editor (for example, Notepad).
Use care when modifying Control
Manager *.xml
or *.cfg files.
To ensure that you can roll back to the original settings, back up
CCGI_Config.xml.
Specify a new value for the OuterPort parameter. This value represents the external communication port.
For example, set OuterPort="2222" to use port 2222.
Save and close CCGI_Config.xml.
Open <root>\Program Files\Trend Micro\COMMON\TMI\TMI.cfg using a text editor.
Making incorrect changes to the configuration file can cause serious system problem. Back up TMI.cfg to restore your original settings.
Replace the OuterPort parameter value to match the value of CCGI_Config.xml.
Save and close TMI.cfg.
2. From the managed product server, perform the following:
Open TMI.cfg using a text editor. Typically, you can find a managed product TMI.cfg in the <root>:\Program Files\Trend\Common\TMI directory.
Modify the OuterPort value to match the Control Manager server's CCGI_Config.xml value.
Modify the HostID value to match with the new port. For example, HostID=12.1.123.123:2222.
Stop and restart the Trend Micro Management Infrastructure service.
Repeat steps 1 to 4 for all managed product servers.
Modify all TMI.cfg in your Control Manager network (server and agents) to the OuterPort value. Otherwise, the server and agent communication will not work.
