IBM Tivoli Composite Application Manager for Application Diagnostics, Version 7.1.0.1
Port Consolidator reference and configuration - J2EE Agent
The Port Consolidator is used to reduce network resources. It is used on the data collector to limit the number of ports used by the data collector when communicating with the Managing Server. The Port Consolidator only consolidates the traffic in one direction: from the Managing Server to the data collector. All traffic from the Managing Server to the data collector will be routed through the Port Consolidator. However, the traffic from the data collector to the Managing Server is direct.
Typically, it is used in a firewall environment. The following sections shows one deployment scenario:
All data collectors and Port Consolidators are installed on the same physical server.
- Jar files and scripts for manual installations
- Configure a data collector to use the Port Consolidator
- Reconfiguring the data collector to bypass the Port Consolidator
