LMS Server uses port 3483 for the SlimProto client protocol, which players use to communicate with the server. This is not configurable. You can configure the LMS http and telnet port numbers on LMS. These ports can be used by controllers/web browsers to actually control the players. Squeezelite-X provides both the player and controller functions and allows you to specify the Http and telnet port numbers to match what you have configured on your LMS server. It is available on the Windows Store for Windows 10 platforms and there is a legacy installer for Windows 7 and later. Go here for more info on Squeezelite-X. https://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?108550-Announce-Squeezelite-X If using Squeezelite-X in a "remote" configuration using port forwarding, you will need to forward ports 3483, the http port (usually 9000) and the telnet port (usually 9090) to get it to work. I do this but in LMS I turn on blocking and only allow defined IP addresses. And I have a separate dedicated LMS server running on a raspberry pi for this purpose.
