Hi
I have noticed that when LabVIEW (8.6 but before as well) application which uses VISA is installed (by building the installer) the UDP port 6000 is blocked and no other program can use it.
Does anyone know how to check which other ports are blocked by VISA?
thanks
Pawel
Solved! Go to Solution.

Hi
I just checked that the NI Variable Engine is not part of my installation, so how come it can block the USP ports 6000 and other?
Did I miss something?
thanks

I checked the services, it is not there.

Odd. Let's try this a different way. Open up a command prompt and type
netstat -a -o
You should get a great big list of all the open ports. The last column will show you the process ID that has that port opened. You can find out the name of the process by opening Task Manager, switching to the "Processes" tab, then select the View -> Select Columns... menu item and check the "PID (Process Identifier)" box. This should allow you to identify which process has that specific port open.
What do you get?

Hi
Good idea.
Here is what I have:
Before VISA installation
C:\Documents and Settings\Administrator>netstat -a -p UDP
Active Connections
Proto Local Address Foreign Address State
UDP PDS2k:microsoft-ds *:*
UDP PDS2k:netbios-ns *:*
UDP PDS2k:netbios-dgm *:*
UDP PDS2k:isakmp *:*
UDP PDS2k:4500 *:*
C:\Documents and Settings\Administrator>netstat -a -p UDP
After VISA installation
Active Connections
Proto Local Address Foreign Address State
UDP PDS2k:microsoft-ds *:*
UDP PDS2k:1027 *:*
UDP PDS2k:2343 *:*
UDP PDS2k:5000 *:*
UDP PDS2k:5001 *:*
UDP PDS2k:5002 *:*
UDP PDS2k:6000 *:*
UDP PDS2k:6001 *:*
UDP PDS2k:6002 *:*
UDP PDS2k:netbios-ns *:*
UDP PDS2k:netbios-dgm *:*
UDP PDS2k:isakmp *:*
UDP PDS2k:4500 *:*
UDP PDS2k:5353 *:*
As I can see just the instalation of the VISA 4.4 blocks the port 6000.
Is there a way I can control it somehow and remove the port blocking?
thanks
