Network - Port Allocation

In this guide, we will step-by-step show you how to add additional ports to your server.

Log in to the Panel

Navigate to the Network tab

1 Shut down your server. Port allocations require the server to be restarted for the changes to take effect.
In the left-hand menu, click the 2 Network tab.

Add the Port Allocation

Dedicated IP owners can choose a port between a specific range whereas non dedicated IP users are assigned a port randomly. We'll show the process for both.

For non-dedicated IP

Click on the Create Allocation button.

1 If you’re using a plugin that’s a voice chat (such as Simple Voice Chat or Plasmo Voice Chat), HTTP-based (Bluemap, Plan, Dynmap, etc), or Votifier, then you’ll want to check the checkbox. This is because Gcore’s L7 anti-DoS may be strict and block the connections.
2 Hit the Create button.

Optionally, add a short note for the port.
Done! You have now added a port to your server.
You can change which port is the Primary one through the Make Primary button, which is typically the port used to join your server. You can also add notes to help remember which port is being used for what.

For a dedicated IP

Click on the Create Allocation button.

1 Input the port of interest unless you want an unfiltered port; then, skip this step.
2 If you’re using a plugin that’s a voice chat (such as Simple Voice Chat or Plasmo Voice Chat), HTTP-based (Bluemap, Plan, Dynmap, etc), or Votifier, then you’ll want to check the checkbox. This is because Gcore’s L7 anti-DoS may be strict and block the connections.
3 Press the Create button.

Done! You have just added a custom port to your server.
You can change which port is the Primary one through the Make Primary button, which is typically the port used to join your server. You can also add notes to help remember which port is being used for what.
