This Guide is how to configure SpinFire and actifyd.exe to use specific ports (static ports) and not automatic ports (dynamic ports). PortNumber specifies the TCP/IP port to use for communication with the license manager daemon.
A valid port number is any unused port number between 0 and 64000. If the TCP/IP port number is not specified, FLEXnet uses a port number in the range 27000 to 27009.
 
NOTE - Setting a specified port for the Vendor Daemon (actifyd.exe) and the lmgrd.exe is not needed in most cases. But with some "firewall" configurations and/or VPN configurations this can be required . Steps for adding actifyd.exe + lmgrd.exe to the firewall can be found here.
