Error while testing ITS Connection

Question

Hi all:
     There is an error while testing ITS Connection,  it says the 8000 port is a closed point by the firewall ,  but according to the
administrator of intranet,  there is no firewall between ECC and Portal, I guess I should add port 8000 into service file ? I mean the file of Host and Service, am I right ?
An HTTP/S connection to http://10.180.80.171:8000 was not obtained successfully; this might be due to a closed port on the Firewall.

Answer 1

thank you very much for your help. for update server's full name, may I put the mapping values  into host file in the format of  <ip address> <hostname.domain name> <hostname>, do you think it is OK?
in the second blog you suggest there is something about Server port(please refer to the following):
in the window machine, there should be an entry like sapms<SAP System ID> , can you please give me a full example:
let's say my system ID is EC1,  so it would be sapmsEC1  8000/tcp, right ?
Here you have to enter the port of your application server. By default this is 80<SAP System ID>. But your basis administrator can modify this setting, thatu2019s why you should check it in the transaction SMICM (Goto -> Parameters -> Display). For example the IBSolution Development System Erinome the port is 8000.
You can also have a look into your services file on your machine. If you have a windows machine then the file exists e.g. here C:\WINDOWS\system32\drivers\etc\services
In this file you should search a entry like sapms<SAP System ID>.
