SQL Server Port Issues

  • Hi SQL Guys, need some help on understanding the ports.

    On one of the production SQL servers i found ports

    IP1 - IP6 as 1433 active and not enabled and IP all as 3456

    All dynamic ports are disabled.

    but i am able to connect to SQL Server without using any extension MSSQL;3456

    How is this possible?

    if we are using the different port then we must connect to 3456 right during the login.

    Also when i am using this command

    USE master

    GO

    xp_readerrorlog 0, 1, N'Server is listening on'

    GO

    2015-03-20 19:44:35.230ServerServer is listening on [ 'any' <ipv6> 3456].

    2015-03-20 19:44:35.230ServerServer is listening on [ 'any' <ipv4> 3456].

    2015-03-20 19:44:35.250ServerServer is listening on [ ::1 <ipv6> 1434].

    2015-03-20 19:44:35.250ServerServer is listening on [ 147.0.0.1 <ipv4> 1434].

  • Hi There,

    Do you have SQL Browser running ? It's needed to direct traffic to not standard ports I.E Not 1433

    The fact you can connect when using MSSQL,3456 suggests it's not firewall related

    Other thing to try is in SQL Server Config manager go to the protocols for you instance and right click on TCP/IP properties. Wipe out all the Dynamic Ports or TCP Ports in IP1 - 6 so nothing exists in these fields. Then ensure IPALL only specifies TCP Port TCP Dynamic Port should be blank.

    Even thou IP1 - 6 are set to not enabled I've seen issues in the past when these fields contain values.

    In SQL Server 2012 you can query a DMV that was absent in 2008 to discover tcp ports:

    SELECT *

    FROM sys.dm_tcp_listener_states

  • Thanks Guys.

    I am able to connect to sql server by using port number as suffix during login.

    The SQL Server browser is enabled on one server and not on other

    But i am getting the same results.

    If i wanted to use both default port and custom port, what happens if i put the values 1433, 3456 in IP all tcp/ip ports?

    one of the database wants to connect to 1433 and all others to 3456

    what will be effects to other databases. any security issues?

    It won't work. You need to create another endpoint.

    Here's how to do it: https://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ms189310.aspx

    You can grant or revoke connect to any endpoint to any user you find appropriate.
