How to Add Additional Ports

## When Do You Need Additional Ports?

You may need extra ports for:

- **Simple Voice Chat mod** — Requires a separate UDP port
- **DynMap** — Requires a separate port for the web map
- **GeyserMC** — May need a separate Bedrock port
- **Other plugins/mods** that listen on their own ports

## How to Add a Port

You can allocate additional ports yourself directly from the game panel:

- Log into your Pterodactyl game panel
- Select your server
- Go to the **Network** tab
- Click **Create Allocation** to add a new port
- The new port will be assigned automatically

## Port Limit

Each server can have up to **3 port allocations** by default (including your primary port). If you need more than 3, open a **Technical Support** ticket and we'll increase your allocation limit.

## After Adding a Port

- Note the port number shown in the Network tab
- Configure your mod or plugin to use that port number
- Restart your server
