In versions prior to v.6.1.1, communications between the remote IIS web server and the Watchdoc server pass through port 5744 using the Microsoft .NET Remoting protocol.
For security reasons, Doxense does not recommend installation in remote mode, which requires port 5744 to be opened.
Between versions v. 6.0.1.5221 and v. 6.0.1.5318, this port is automatically closed during installation or when an update is performed. It is therefore necessary to manage this port in order for Watchdoc to function correctly (see Managing port 5744 in the firewall).
From version 6.1.1, the port used between the remote web server and the Watchdoc server is port 5754 (or 5753), so port 5744 is no longer used (see Network ports and protocols).
