Pkicreate tool allows selecting any ports. Pkicreate also suggests
ports for out of the box ease of use.
There must be more to the story than this. I tried running pkicreate
with two of the subsystems using the same port
-agent_secure_port=8443 -ee_secure_port=8443
And when it runs I get the error
[error] Invalid port numbers submitted!
Is there some reason that these cannot be the same port, or is it just
convention. Does the agent use some protocol other than HTTP? I get
this error is I try to use the same port for any two *_secure_port values.
