The following table shows the industry standard port settings, as well as the Java Web Server default port settings, for various services. Using the industry standard port settings means clients do not have to specify the port number when requesting a resource from that service. For example, if the webpage service was installed on standard port 80, a client could request:

http://schnauzer.eng.sun.com/index.html

http://schnauzer.eng.sun.com:80/index.html

If you are not using industry standard port settings but still want clients to be able to request a resource without having to specify your port setting, you can do so by creating a file alias. For instructions on how to create a file alias using the Administration tool, see Accessing Files Through Aliases.

Service	Standard Port Number	Java Web Server Default Port Number
Webpage Service	80	8080
Secure Web Service	443	7070
Proxy Service	no standard	service not provided
AdminTool Service (external)	no standard	9090
AdminTool Service (internal)	no standard	9091
Session Service	no standard	9094

Note: On UNIX platforms, installation of a service on a port less than 1024 requires root privileges.
