BMC Control-M Server
Port 2370 is the default communication channel for the BMC Control-M automation suite, specifically enabling connectivity between the Control-M/Enterprise Manager and the Control-M/Server components. This port facilitates scheduling operations, job status updates, and overall orchestration within enterprise batch workloads. While the default is port 2370, organizations often customize it during installation to align with their network policies..
BMC Control-M is a widely-used workload automation tool designed to simplify and streamline batch job scheduling across diverse IT environments. Port 2370 serves as the default TCP port through which the Enterprise Manager communicates with the Control-M/Server to exchange control information including job submission, status monitoring, and management commands.
The communication over this port typically involves proprietary BMC Control-M protocols, enabling integration with databases, applications, and various platforms. The port facilitates real-time updates and centralized coordination, which are crucial for timely execution of business processes.
It is important to note that while 2370 is reserved by default, many administrators choose to customize this port setting to avoid conflicts, reduce exposure, or comply with organizational network segmentation policies. Proper configuration includes access controls and network segmentation alongside port selection.
