SERVER_PORT_WINDOW option for NetBackup servers
The SERVER_PORT_WINDOW option specifies the range of non-reserved ports on which NetBackup processes on this computer accept 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 and that host is configured for non-reserved ports. This also applies to NDMP call-back to the media server during remote NDMP backups.
