Q: IB/FB port of communication?

I am planning to have a IB/FB client outside the LAN (i.e outside the
firewall), my question is which tcp port(s) is an IB client using to
communicate to a server? Is it 3050, is that the only one?

Hi,

CMIIW, yes, the only one port that IB need to communicate with client is
3050.

Unless you're using events...

I believe the event-callback mechanism uses a random port?

Yes. Also, InterClient uses port 3060.

3050 is the port that IB uses.
