Hi Community,

Can someone help us with my below queries related to these ports for ABAP agent & SDK agent set up configuration;

As per the Appd documentation, it's mentioned that "An additional port must be open per each SAP application server to enable communication between ABAP Agent and the remote HTTP SDK instance."
Reference link: https://help.splunk.com/en/appdynamics-sap-agent/sap-monitoring/install-sap-netweaver-systems/instal...

In ABAP agent Set Up document page we can see a screenshot where it's mentioned 8912 & 8913 port for two different SAP application node.

  • So, if it's something that the SDK agent should listen to from the port 8912,8913 series( if ports are inbuilt with the SDK agent as like default SDK manager port 7999) then we should proceed with that or else incase if we use any different unique port as like 8000,8001,8002 for three different SAP servers then does it require any additional configuration for this port openings at SDK agent end or at server end.
  • Or if we ask the network team simply to open the ports (8912,8913,8914) or (8000,8001,8002) from  the SAP application server to the remote SDK Linux gateway server respectively, is that enough to work the communication between the agents in the server.
  • Also, we have followed the readme.txt file included inside the SDK agent (SapAgent-26.3.0) folder, in that file nothing is clearly mentioned related to this unique port for each SAP application server. In the readme.txt file it's mentioned only that after starting the SDK agent all further actions are executed from SAP system.
