5.2 Port Definitions
Port definitions allow you to define which IP address and port combinations that the FX Series ADC will
listen on and what protocols should be accepted over these combinations. A port definition is required
for every IP address and port combination on which the FX Series ADC will accept connections in a proxy
mode. For each port definition you must specify the protocol that will be used. Port definitions are only
needed if you will be directing traffic to the FX Series ADC as a proxy, or from a remote software client
that is running acceleration plug-in.
This screen allows you to maintain Port definitions. A list of previously defined Port definitions is
displayed in the order in which they were defined. An existing entry may be chosen by clicking on the
port. You can “Enable”, “Disable”, or “Delete” one or more Port definitions by selecting the checkbox to
the left of the port column and clicking on the desired button. By clicking on “Add” you can add a new
port definition which will bring up the port definition screen.
