Configures a COM application to use a specified TCP port number for DCOM communications.

Registry Entry

HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Classes\AppID
   {AppID_GUID}
      Endpoints = ncacn_ip_tcp,0,port

Remarks

This is a REG_MULTI_SZ value.

The port value is a number between 1024 and 65535 that specifies the TCP port number that your COM application will use for DCOM communications. If you do not specify this registry key, port numbers for DCOM communications are dynamically assigned. In most scenarios, you might prefer to leave this registry key undefined and allow DCOM to dynamically assign port numbers.
