    Hello,We have lync 2013 front end pools.

    Is there anyway to set that Internal lync clients use specific ports when sharing desktop/App (Only between internal(LAN) Lync clients)

    (Lync clients Version 2010 and 2013)

    Thanks in advance.

    It shouldn't be an issue.  Those ranges are for client traffic only, not the servers, and with a range of 5350 to 5389, it's extremely unlikely anyone could have enough app sharing sessions to run out of ports.

    Yes, you'd use the set-csconferencingconfiguration command, Lync 2010 and 2013 should respect it.

    It would look something like this if you wanted to turn it on for every policy:

    Get-CsConferencingConfiguration | Set-CsConferencingConfiguration  -ClientMediaPortRangeEnabled $True
Get-CsConferencingConfiguration | Set-CsConferencingConfiguration -ClientAudioPort 50020 -ClientAudioPortRange 20 -ClientVideoPort 58000 -ClientVideoPortRange 20 -ClientAppSharingPort 42000 -ClientAppSharingPortRange 20 - ClientFileTransferPort 42020 -ClientFileTransferPortRange 20

    That would set app sharing to ports 42000 to 42019.  It also sets ports for other modalities, which you'd want since they might otherwise overlap.

    Perfect, thanks

    In the other hand...if i restrict the ports to any range (suppose 5350 - 5389) ...will have any "of saturation" problems with desktop sharing , app sharing , audio/video ? ..

    We have about 5000 clients in the internal LAN...if i restrict the port range..it will affect ?
