Synopsis

  • TCP port 449 is used by IBM i (AS/400, iSeries, System i) as the AS Server Mapper service (IANA service name: as-servermap).
  • IBM i client software—including IBM i Access Client Solutions (ACS), the legacy IBM Client Access/400, IBM Navigator for i, and IBM ODBC/JDBC/DRDA-based tools (e.g., DB2 clients)—contacts port 449 to discover the actual host server ports for services like database, file, remote command, and print.
  • In practice, these clients first connect to 449/tcp on the IBM i to obtain mappings, then open the appropriate service ports (commonly in the 8470–8476 range).
  • Administrators often allow 449/tcp through firewalls specifically to enable IBM i client connectivity and service discovery.
