Hi,

We have a cluster node with multiple SQL Server 2005 instances. Since these instances have different IP addresses can we use the same default port 1433 for all of these instances or should we use different non standard port numbers for these instances?

Could any one please help me with this issue?

Thank you,

Yours,
SQLBuddy

multiple instances cannot listen on same port.. so its best to configure different ports to different instances.
