By default, it will look for a port in the range + 1024 to 65535, inclusively. As of release 2.2.3.SP1, PortUtil can be configured + to search a smaller range by setting the values PortUtil.MIN_PORT (actual + value "minPort") and / or PortUtil.MAX_PORT (actual value "maxPort") in + the InvokerLocator, a configuration map, an MBean XML file. The range is static; + that is, whenever "minPort" or "maxPort" are set, they affect all + subsequent calls in the JVM. Note that <classname>PortUtil</classname> + will apply a new "minPort" value only if it is greater than the current + value, and it will apply a new "maxPort" value only if it is less than + the current value. And it will never apply a new value when the result + would be such that the value of "maxPort" would be less than the value + of "minPort".</para> </section> <section>
