IBM Director in the blade centers & Service Location Protocol

[axfalk]

Is there anybody using IBM Director in conjunction with blade center servers? Supposedly, the IBM DIrector is communicating to the blade servers via a Service Location Protocol. Can anybody please let me know what port this protocol is traversing and if it's a broadcast or a multicast?

thanks much

Hello,

SLP uses TCP/UDP ports 427 and 1847, as well as several multicast addresses, check this link for details:
