SERVER_RESERVED_PORT_WINDOW option for NetBackup servers and clients
This option specifies the range of local reserved ports on which this computer accepts connections from NetBackup on other computers when the inbound connection is not to a well known port. This primarily applies to bpcd call-back when vnetd is disabled in the connect options for the remote NetBackup server or client.
The SERVER_RESERVED_PORT_WINDOW option applies when a server connects to a client that is configured to accept only reserved ports. This option is generally not useful on clients.
