Default ports for on-premises Forcepoint security solutions

Applies to:
  • Forcepoint Web Security and Forcepoint URL Filtering, v8.5.x
  • Forcepoint DLP, v8.5.x, v8.6.x, v8.7.x, v8.8.x, v8.9.x, v9.0, v10.x
  • Forcepoint Email Security, v8.5.x
  • Forcepoint appliances, v8.5.x

The attached Excel spreadsheet lists the default port numbers used by on-premises web, data, and email protection components. It includes the ports for both appliance- based and software-based deployments.

It is important to note that these are default port numbers; some of them may have been changed during installation for your particular deployment.

For web protection solutions, to change ports for most services, use the initialization (INI) file for the component. Given dependencies between components, the change may need to be made in multiple files.

  • Instructions for changing the Policy Server and Policy Broker ports can be found in the Server Administration section of the Forcepoint Web Security Administrator Help.
  • Use the Web Security module of the Forcepoint Security Manager to configure the Log Server port, and to configure communication with Log Server if the port has changed.
  • Use the Web Security module of the Security Manager to change port information for transparent identification agents (DC Agent, Logon Agent, RADIUS Agent, or eDirectory Agent).

If instructions for the component that you need to reconfigure are not available, contact Forcepoint Technical Support for assistance.

Port information for data and email protection solutions is also available in other formats. See:
