How to get the source port for Sentinel notifications provided by the system

Problem

TCP/IP source port conflict


How to get the port assigned by the system ?

Resolution

Sentinel notifications can get the source port from the system when the variable sentinel.trk_min/max_port is set to '0' (zero).

The system will assign one of the Ephemeral Port range (default is 1024 - 65535)


Command:

uconfset id='sentinel.trk_min_port',value=0

uconfset id='sentinel.trk_max_port',value=0


Note:

Current Ephemeral Ports range available can be displayed from a Netstat Config command:
