![](https://storage.crisp.chat/users/helpdesk/website/241eba7e7147c4/c94c226a-eb29-41e0-ac0d-aefe5d_jqiwxt.png)

This guide will show you how to find an additional port for any plugin that needs it.

Those are some examples of plugins that require an extra port:

* [Dynmap](https://help.ggservers.com/en-us/article/how-to-set-up-and-configure-dynmap-1mj0qtk/)  
* [NuVotifier](https://help.ggservers.com/en-us/article/how-to-set-up-and-use-nuvotifier-1osr3hz/)

||| ⚠ NOTE ⚠: We do not allow ports over `20000` to be used for any plugin, mod, or configuration which requires a port. Such ports are restricted to server ports. If we find that your configuration files use such a port we reserve the right to change it. You will be informed via ticket if this does happen.
