Hi Dave, The port is used to connect to a cluster using REST based protocol implementation. https://apacheignite.readme.io/docs/rest-api
It’s used by Visor CMD utility https://apacheignite.readme.io/docs/command-line-interface If you don’t expect to use Visor or this feature in general you can ignore this port leaving it closed. On the other side if you decide to use Visor then you can always change the port number to some other value this way IgniteConfiguraiton cfg = ….; ConnectorConfiguration cCfg = ….; cCfg.setPort(20000); cfg.setConnectorConfiguration(cCfg); — Denis > On Jun 6, 2016, at 4:36 PM, Dave <dbett...@gmail.com> wrote: > > Hi, > > I've recently started using apache ignite in a project and am looking to put > it in to production in the next 4 weeks.
