You can also specify which port to connect by using a colon after the IP Address/FQDN, e.g. 192.10.10.10:6226 will specify that the VSM Everywhere client should connect to the collector on port 6226.

If no port is specified the default port of 8444 will be used.

In order for the VSM Everywhere client to connect on a port that is not 8444, you will need to change the port that a VSM Collector listens on.

The documentation below details this process for both Linux Virtual Machine (VM) and Windows-based collectors.

Changing Listening Port For a Linux-based Collector

Open a console session to a Linux VM.

Stop the VSM Client Gateway by typing the following command:

$sudo systemctl stop clientgateway.service

Next, type:

$sudo nano /opt/ADSClientGateway/ADSServiceHost.cfg

This will open up the Client Gateway configuration file.

Once all changes have been made, save the change press 'Ctrl+O' and then press 'Enter' to write out the changes. To close the 'nano' editor press 'Ctrl+X'.

Once the changes have been saved, restart the Client Gateway by entering the following:

$sudo systemctl start clientgateway.service

Changing Listening Port For a Windows-based Collector

Access the Windows Machine that contains the Windows-based VSM Collector

Open Notepad.exe as an administrator and then open the ADSServiceHost_UCSP_Client_Gateway.cfg file. The default path to the configuration file is C:\Program Files\Virsae Group\Client Gateway).

Search for <Key>Client Gateway Server Port</Key> and in the line below this
