Having different ports for different products will be a problem. Right now
if one knows how to access the management console of a single product, he
knows what to do to access any of the management consoles of any product in
the platform. Similar to other ports as well, such as the ESB and APIM use
8280 as the default passthrough port, similar for default thrift ports as
well.

So having different offsets for different products will confuse users more
IMO.
