ibaManagementStudio services

ibaManagementStudio runs as a service under Windows. In addition to the agent service, an auxiliary service must also be running to perform tasks that require elevated permissions. This means that the agent service, which does not have an open interface, does not require elevated permissions.

The auxiliary service does not open any additional ports, but uses the interaction port of the software.
