# Default TCP and UDP Port Usage

FileWave software uses the below-listed TCP/IP ports. These are default settings and may be configured to listen on different ports if required. Consider [FileWave Server should not have IPv6 enabled](https://kb.filewave.com/books/filewave-server/page/filewave-server-should-not-have-ipv6-enabled "FileWave Server should not have IPv6 enabled") for the best experience.

## Port Testing

Please consider downloading the [FileWave Port Testing](https://supportresources.filewave.com) macOS/Windows utility to confirm communication of Google Cloud Messaging, Apple Push Notifications and connectivity between device network(s) and Server/Boosters.

The following may be run from the server to confirm Apple, Microsoft, and FileWave services:

**Server Command Line**

```
sudo /usr/local/filewave/python/bin/python /usr/local/filewave/django/manage.pyc check_connections
```

## TeamViewer Ports

TeamViewer has an additional set of ports to consider:

## FileWave Server Ports

<p class="callout info">MDM default port is now 20445 as shown throughout this KB. On older versions of FileWave, this was 20443. To confirm the defined port, check the Port setting in FileWave Central &gt; Preferences &gt; Mobile &gt; MDM Server &gt; Port</p>

<p class="callout success">The ports in this table are listed from the FileWave Server’s perspective, so the “Server In/Out” column indicates the direction of traffic relative to the Server.</p>
