All instances of the [!INCLUDE[ssDE](../includes/ssde-md.md)] installed on the computer are displayed. The default instance is unnamed and is shown as the computer name. A named instance displays as the computer name followed by a backward slash (\\) and then the name of the instance. For [!INCLUDE[ssExpress](../includes/ssexpress-md.md)], the instance is named *<computer_name>*\sqlexpress unless the name was changed during setup.

## <a name="port"></a>Configuring a Fixed Port
6365
To enhance security, Windows Server 2008, [!INCLUDE[wiprlhlong](../includes/wiprlhlong-md.md)], and Windows 7 all turn on the Windows Firewall. When you want to connect to this instance from another computer, you must open a communication port in the firewall. The default instance of the [!INCLUDE[ssDE](../includes/ssde-md.md)] listens on port 1433; therefore, you do not have to configure a fixed port. However, named instances including [!INCLUDE[ssExpress](../includes/ssexpress-md.md)] listen on dynamic ports. Before you can open a port in the firewall, you must first configure the [!INCLUDE[ssDE](../includes/ssde-md.md)] to listen on a specific port known as a fixed port or a static port; otherwise, the [!INCLUDE[ssDE](../includes/ssde-md.md)] might listen on a different port each time it is started. For more information about firewalls, the default Windows firewall settings, and a description of the TCP ports that affect the Database Engine, Analysis Services, Reporting Services, and Integration Services, see [Configure the Windows Firewall to Allow SQL Server Access](../sql-server/install/configure-the-windows-firewall-to-allow-sql-server-access.md).
