The Metadata Manager Agent uses HTTP to communicate with the Metadata Manager Service when you load a resource.

Metadata Manager Agent connects to the Metadata Manager Service using the default port 19983 or any port you specify in the Tomcat configuration file, server.xml. You can verify or update the port number in the Tomcat configuration file that is available in the following location:

<INFA_HOME>\MetadataManagerAgent\tomcat\conf\
