Remove ports

[Liron_ 1]

i created an emby server and it auto created ports in my router now i cant disable them nor remove them and i want to use another program since im switching to another machine but i still want to use the same ports but even if not the same ports i dont want just extra ports open for access from the outside since that isnt secure. how can i delete them and my server completely?

Disable UPnP (Universal Plug and Play) in your routers settings. It allows devices on your lan to create port forwarding rules automatically.

do you have any idea where i could find it? ik every router web page is different but a general idea where it could be?

Must be another options somewhere but from a Emby standpoint just uninstall the port mapper plugin and restart server and router.

If you have already uninstalled Emby then restart your router.

edit:

disable UPnP and restart router after uninstalling

I thought Emby had an option to use UPnP or not.  I can't find a switch now.  Was it ever there?  Seems like Emby should ask before opening ports - is this done during install?

Settings>Network tab>"Enable automatic port mapping" tickbox.

Yes, you're explicity agreeing (or not) to automatically map ports during Startup Wizard.

I guess my Premiere license doesn't give me that option - it is not on my Network page.
(And to be sure, also no switch at admin > Server > Settings.)

So, if that option is (supposed to be) there, then that would be another way to solve the OP's issue?

Do you have Port Mapper plugin installed? Does your server has remote access enabled? As those are the only two scenarios I know of, where that option would not be visible, it is unrelated to Premiere subscription.

yeah, I know my license has nothing to do with it, just being sarcastic.  (Or is that 'dramatic'?  )

Looks like I don't have the port mapper installed.
I do have remote access enabled.

It comes included with the server, so you may have uninstalled it and forgotten that you did that.
