Post From: Connect Sierra Chart’s to a Custom/Internal DTC Protocol Server

In debugging disconnect issues by SC Client, I noted that the main SC App is listening on the same ports as my in-house - DTC Server. :-(

Results of netstat -aon:

Proto Local Address Foreign Address State PID Notes...

TCP 0.0.0.0:1234 0.0.0.0:0 LISTENING 5600 -- Main SC Market Data Server
TCP 0.0.0.0:4321 0.0.0.0:0 LISTENING 5600 -- Main SC History Data Server

TCP 127.0.0.1:1234 0.0.0.0:0 LISTENING 35788 -- My DTC History Data Server
TCP 127.0.0.1:4321 0.0.0.0:0 LISTENING 30644 -- My DTC Market Data Server

While my network expertise is limited, it seems multiple processes listening on the same ports will cause issues.

Is there a way to configure the Main SC App to connect to a DTC Protocol Server by defining the IP Address (127.0.0.1) and relevant history and market data ports without using the new instance approach noted in prior message? Or, am I not correctly setting configurations for the new instance approach?
