Configure the following keys to specify the services that you want to run on a fixed port:
LSA(Local Security Authority) RPC port (same as NTDS fixed port) used for trust creation and other access to the LSA Policy database TCP/IPPortentry in the HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Services\NTDS\Parameters registry key.
Netlogon RPC port used for NTLM, Trust channel DCTcpipPort entry in the HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Services\Netlogon\Parameters registry key.
