Assign a port

To assign a unique identifier to a channel you must type in a number in the port field which represents the port used by this channel. The port must be between 1 and 65535 and it must be unused on your network.
By default we use port 49162 for the first channel administered by just:connect, 49163 for the second, 49164 for the third and so on.
Make sure that the ports are not closed on any router/ firewall which might be installed between just:connect and the interface client(s).

A port is an unique identifier for a service which runs on a computer. If you are not sure whether a port is used on your network, please consult your network administrator.
Each channel must have a different port number assigned. Using the sameport number (for two channels or one just:out engine) on the same machine will result in an error.

Make sure that you use the same port in the log in window of the user interface and for the channel in just:connect, so that the user interface can connect to the channel.

Check the port settings

Click on the sprocket of the user interface to flip it
Check the port number of the channel defined here
Make sure it is the same port of the channel you would like to connect to

It is possible to define a different channel name here (which is then shown in the user interface when using Just Play), but the port number must match with the port number defined in just:connect.
