Description:

This article describes which ports are used in an ePaper scenario. This information is necessary, if these ports have to be opened in a firewall. 

The ePaper server was discontinued in January 2024 (End of Sale). Therefore LANCOM Systems will not provide support for new installations of the ePaper server. LANCOM Systems will provide support for existing ePaper server installations up to and including January 2026.


The following ports are used: 

  • You can modify the TCP port 8000 by invoking the LANCOM Wireless ePaper Server with the parameter --port x (x represents the desired port number). The API can be reached on port x+1 instead 8001 afterwards.
  • As an alternative you can also enter the desired port number in the attached file defaults.config and saving it in the installation path of the LANCOM Wireless ePaper Server in the folder Config. The Windows service which is set up during the installation also uses the port entered in the configuration file.
