Re: changing http/https ports in ESXi 5.0

Sorry, I don't mean to hijack this reply, however I follow the steps, the port 8081 does not appear after reload the firewall and restarting mgmt service.

<service id='0017'>

    <id>vSphereClient</id>

    <rule id='0000'>

      <direction>inbound</direction>

      <protocol>tcp</protocol>

      <porttype>dst</porttype>

      <port>902</port>

    </rule>

    <rule id='0001'>

       <direction>inbound</direction>

       <protocol>tcp</protocol>

       <porttype>dst</porttype>

       <port>443</port>

    </rule>

    <rule id='0002'>

       <direction>inbound</direction>

       <protocol>tcp</protocol>

       <porttype>dst</porttype>

       <port>8081</port>

    </rule>

    <enabled>true</enabled>

    <required>false</required>

/etc/vmware/firewall # esxcli network ip connection list | grep 8081
