How to you enter a port to be used for Service Desk customer portal?

Question

How do you specify a path to a customer portal in service desk if you want to use a specific server and port?

You can use any (free) port you want for a JIRA installation, either directly on the server, or via a proxy.

Thanks Nic! But what if there was a need to use a specific port for Service Desk for security reasons; is that possible?

Service Desk runs as part of a JIRA install, so you use the same port as that.  Most of us run JIRA on 8080 then proxy it to 80 so users don't have to think about ports.
