Configuring Console Network Settings

By default, the server process for the SAS High-Performance Computing Management Console listens on port 10020 and on all IP addresses for the machine on which it is installed. However, the port and address settings are configurable.
Note: In a SAS Visual Analytics deployment, do not change the port number.
To specify the port and address settings:
  1. Click Console Management from the toolbar.
  2. Click Console Configuration and then click Ports and Addresses.
