Hello people, how's going everything?

I have this doubt with these parameters in the target properties file.

What if I had, i.e., 3 databases with Fathom Replication and their properties files has this pattern?:
Code:
[agent]
   name=contingency
   database=<database>
   listener-minport=4011
   listener-maxport=4013

[transition]
   database-role=normal

I've been reading the post What ports need to be open for OpenEdge Replication through a firewall from the community knoledge base and it says I can do it as long as "it can be guaranteed to always be available".

Now, I understand that "availability guaranteed" on ports means the ports will never cross with another service and it will be always a forwarding port. So, in this case, I am pretty sure the availability of these 3 ports will be always guaranteed.

Am I wrong? Is there something more implied?

A reason for this configuration would be to improve security and order in firewalling rules, doing ranges as little as possible.

Thanks for reading,
I hope to be clear, but let me know.

Not sure why this one was blocked, but I see you managed to get the thread created so I'll lock this one.
