Keyspan:USB Server - User Manual
Network tab: UDP Port/TCP Port
The UDP port and TCP Port fields allow you to specify which
port numbers the USB Server will communicate on. This
communication happens between the USB Server hardware and
software. By default, these ports are set to 3842. Port 3842 is
reserved exclusively for the Keyspan USB Server. Other IP
services (ie ftp, email, web, etc.) cannot use this reserved port.
UDP Port (default is 3842): Change this setting to change the
UDP port number that the USB Server will broadcast on. Other
computers configured to use this UDP port number will be able to
see this USB Server. This setting is useful if you wish to limit the
number of people connecting to a particular USB Server or if you
want to hide a USB Server from other users on your network.
IMPORTANT NOTE: If you change your server's UDP Port number in the
Servers tab, you will also need to tell the Keyspan Server Utility software to
'listen' to the new port. To do this, go to the LOCAL SETTINGS tab in the
Keyspan Server Utility application and enter your UDP Port field. You only
need to change the Local UDP Port if you've changed the USB Server's UDP
port.
TCP Port (default is 3842): Change this port to change the TCP
port that the USB Server uses to transmit and receive USB data.
Tech Note:UDP/TCP Ports and Firewalls: For most users, there is no
need to change the USB Server's UDP and TCP ports however certain firewalls
may block traffic to the default UDP and TCP ports. In these instances, you
can either change the port numbers or configure your firewall to allow
connections via USB Server's configured UDP and TCP ports.
