You should be able to identify the default port numbers used in the various versions of WebSphere Application Server so that you can avoid port conflicts if you plan for an earlier version to coexist or interoperate with V6.1.
When you configure WebSphere Application Server resources or assign port numbers to other applications, avoid conflicts with other assigned ports. In addition, when you configure a firewall, explicitly enable access to particular port numbers. Notes:
