How to perform IP address mapping with Progress database

Learn how to execute the mapping of IP addresses for the Progress database.

To establish communication between a pipeline and a database through a VPN (Virtual Private Network), the IP address (location where the database is installed) must be provided.

When using the Progress database, it’s also necessary to inform the range of ports defined by -minport and -maxport. If the script that loads the database doesn’t specify those two parameters, their default values as defined by the Progress database will be:

• Ports 1025 to 2000 for Unix/Linux

• Ports 3000 to 5000 for Windows.
