Editing port settings for pcAnywhere Gateway
Configuring pcAnywhere Gateway to allow incoming modem
connections
Symantec pcAnywhere Gateway is configured to use ports 5631 (TCP data port)
and 5632 (UDP status port) by default. If you change the port setting for
pcAnywhere Gateway, you must also change the port settings of all of the
pcAnywhere hosts that you want pcAnywhere Gateway to discover. If you change
the default port settings for pcAnywhere Gateway, remote users who want to
connect through the Gateway must also change their pcAnywhere port settings
to match.
If you use a NAT device to manage connections, you must open the ports on the
device to allow incoming pcAnywhere connections. The port settings of your NAT
device must match the port settings of Symantec pcAnywhere Gateway.
For more information about opening ports on your NAT device, see the
documentation for your device.
