port forwarding

[HardStroke]

i dont know if it belongs to here but ok

i have a port with a minecraft server

and i want to make another server and create a new port for it

will it be good and not touch the ither port?

2 servers with 1 port for each server

is that possible?

So long as the port number is different from the one you've forwarded for Minecraft it's very possible. It's how your router distinguishes which server/IP you want to connect to.

2 servers on 1 ip?

That depends, public IP or private?

 

Multiple ports can be forwarded to the same IP when running multiple services.

The only real game difference is that if you're not on the game default port, you have to specify the port at the end of the IP such as 18.23.17.38:27016

if you have a domain you can also use an srv record to point a domain to an ip and port (it only works on certain apps, minecraft is one of them)
