How to select securidprop port designations in RSA ACE/Server
Resolution
RSA ACE/Server and Authentication Manager Services file configuration:
Authentication Port
securid 5500/udp # ACE/Server and Authentication Manager installation
If there is an existing securidprop value in the /etc/services file during an upgrade, the services will be configured to begin at that value, usually 5510. In that case, adding a tenth replica will cause a conflict on port 5520 with sdlog. Problems may occur if your services file is hand-modified to reflect the starting value of 5505 and you have already performed an upgrade with a value of 5510 in the services file. You must run the replication management utility and change each port designation there. On UNIX "sdsetup -repmgmt modify".
securidprop_00 5505/tcp securidprop # acesyncd for primary, replica 0
securidprop_01 5506/tcp # acesyncd for replica 1
securidprop_02 5507/tcp # acesyncd for replica 2
securidprop_03 5508/tcp # acesyncd for replica 3
securidprop_04 5509/tcp # acesyncd for replica 4
securidprop_05 5510/tcp # acesyncd for replica 5
securidprop_06 5511/tcp # acesyncd for replica 6
securidprop_07 5512/tcp # acesyncd for replica 7
securidprop_08 5513/tcp # acesyncd for replica 8
securidprop_09 5514/tcp # acesyncd for replica 9
securidprop_10 5515/tcp # acesyncd for replica 10
#ACE/Server and Authentication Manager Ports
sdlog 5520/tcp # ACE Log Database
sdserv 5530/tcp # ACE User Database
sdreport 5540/tcp # ACE Report Utility
sdadmind 5550/tcp # ACE Remote Administration
sdlockmgr 5560/tcp # ACE Lock Manager
sdcommd 5570/tcp # ACE Web Communications Daemon
sdoad 5580/tcp # ACE Web Offline Authentication Data Daemon / Windows Integration (RSA Authentication Manager ONLY)
sdxauthd 5540/udp # ACE External Authorization Daemon (no longer used - # valid for 4.1 and earlier servers)
# ACE/Server and Authentication Manager RADIUS and TACACS+ Ports
tacacs 49/tcp # TACACS+
radius 1645/udp # ACE RADIUS
radacct 1646/udp # ACE RADIUS Accounting
