CLIENT_RESERVED_PORT_WINDOW option for NetBackup servers and clients
The CLIENT_RESERVED_PORT_WINDOW option specifies the range of reserved ports on this computer that are used for connecting to NetBackup on other computers. This setting applies when the computer connects to a client (bpcd) configured to accept only reserved ports.
Beginning with NetBackup 7.0.1, connections to other daemon ports use only the CLIENT_PORT_WINDOW, not the CLIENT_RESERVED_PORT_WINDOW.
