# WHATPORT(1084)

## NAME

port 1084 — Ansoft License Manager / ANSYS License Management Center — The second Ansoft licence port, and today the Tomcat port for the ANSYS License Management Center web UI.

Protocol: TCP  
IANA registry

## DESCRIPTION

1084 was registered alongside 1083 as the second port of the Ansoft (now ANSYS) licence manager. In current ANSYS installations it has a live second life: the licence-manager installer configures a bundled Tomcat on port 1084 to serve the browser-based License Management Center, which admins open at http://localhost:1084/. It is bound to the licence server itself by default, and installs log an explicit check that 1084 is free before starting Tomcat.

## EXPOSURE

**Do not expose.** It is a licence-administration web console shipped on an embedded Tomcat. Leave it local to the licence server, or reach it over a VPN — do not publish it to get remote admin access.

## CHECK

```sh
curl -sS -m 5 -o /dev/null -w '%{http_code}\n' http://TARGET:1084/
```
