Message Queuing cannot bind to UDP port 3527.

Microsoft.MSMQ.6.3.Rule.Alert.Event2171 (Rule)

Knowledge Base article:

Summary

Message Queuing cannot bind to UDP port 3527.

Causes

The Message Queuing internal ping mechanism uses User Datagram Protocol (UDP) port 3527 to establish network connections. Another process may be using this port. Message Queuing can continue to operate without using this port, but connection times will not be optimal.

Resolutions

To optimize the establishment of connections:

To perform these procedures, you must have membership in Administrators, or you must have been delegated the appropriate authority.

Free port 3527

Message Queuing must bind to port 3527 to function. Make sure that the port is free (no other programs are trying to use it) and try to start the MSMQ Service again after allowing time for the port to close.

If this problem occurs during setup, you must free the port and run Setup again.

Restart the MSMQ Service

To restart the MSMQ Service:
