DGT nodes can use various network ports for communication, which are configured through environment variables set up by the upDgtCluster.sh script in the DGT director (for example, /DGT-Matagami/CORE):

- API=8108 (API service)

- COMP=4104 (supporting transaction families)

- NET=8101 (supporting the network)

- CONS=5051 (consensus service)
