Can the TCPIPReceiver within a workspace running on FME Cloud listen on privileged ports?
FME Server doesn't run as root on FME Cloud for security reasons, for ports below 1024 you do need root permissions so unfortunatley the answer is no. Do you have a specific workflow in-mind?
I was looking to build a workflow which listens for SNMP data on port 162 and acts based on that.

 

 

However upon further consideration, we'll need to use secure SNMP which although runs on non-privliged ports, will add complexity in reading the data from within FME.

 

 

Thanks for the answer!
