How to Manage Ports and Network Allocations on XGamingServer
View, add, and manage port allocations for your game server on the XGamingServer panel.
Ports are used by your game server, query systems, RCON, and plugins that need their own connections. The Network tab manages all port allocations.
View Your Allocations
Click Network in the sidebar to see all ports assigned to your server.
Each allocation shows:
| Column | Description |
|---|---|
| IP | Server IP address (click to copy) |
| Port | The assigned port number |
| Notes | Editable label — type to describe what this port is for (auto-saves) |
| Primary | Green badge = the main address players use to connect |
Set the Primary Allocation
The primary allocation is the IP:Port shown at the top of every panel page and what players use to connect.
Click Make Primary on any allocation to switch it.
Add Notes
Click the Notes field next to any allocation and type a label (e.g., "Game Port", "RCON", "Query", "Dynmap"). Notes auto-save.
Create Additional Allocations
Click Create Allocation (top-right).
A new port is assigned automatically.
The number of allocations depends on your plan. If you've reached the limit, delete an unused one or upgrade.
Delete an Allocation
Click the red Delete button next to the allocation. You cannot delete the primary allocation — switch the primary to a different port first.
Warning: Deleting an allocation that a game or plugin is using will break its connection.
