Please note that the klnagent process can also request free ports from the dynamic port range of an endpoint operating system. These ports are allocated to the klnagent process automatically by the operating system, so klnagent process can use some ports that are used by another software. If the klnagent process affects that software operations, change the port settings in this software, or change the default dynamic port range in your operating system to exclude the port used by the software affected.

Also take into account that recommendations on the compatibility of Kaspersky Security Center Cloud Console with third-party software are described for reference only and may not be applicable to new versions of third-party software. The described recommendations for configuring ports are based on the experiences of Technical Support and our best practices.

If you have one or more Administration Servers on your network and use them as secondary Administration Servers when the primary Administration Server is located in the Kaspersky infrastructure, please refer to the list of ports that are used by Kaspersky Security Center running on-premises. Use those ports for interaction between your secondary Administration Server (or secondary Administration Servers) and client devices.
