Selenium 3 - Add Port for Node when run Selenium Grid

Question

At the moment, I am configuring Hub and Nodes for a Selenium 3 Grid setup.

Hub : Start Selenium Hub java -jar selenium-server-standalone-3.0.1.jar -role hub;
Node : Start Selenium node java -Dwebdriver.ie.driver=c:\ws\IEDriverServer.exe -jar selenium-server-standalone-3.4.0.jar -role node -hub http://10.0.12.110:4444/grid/register

Question: I want to have the Node connecting to my Hub through a predefined port (-port 5555). How should I configure the port property for the Node?

!!! Note: with Selenium 2, I successfully configured the node with port 5555: java -jar selenium-server-standalone-2.53.0.jar -role webdriver -hub http://10.0.12.110:4444/grid/register -port 5555 -browser "browserName=chrome,version=ANY,platform=WINDOWS" -Dwebdriver.chrome.driver=c:\WS\chromedriver.exe -browser

However, property -port 5555 doesn't seem to work/have effect in Selenium 3.

How can I make it work?

I am able to connect with the node using the default port 5555 and no need to add any property. — Murthi, Jul 06 '17 at 05:40
Check if the port already is in use. If so try with different port — Madhan, Jul 06 '17 at 06:19

You can create node-config.json file and store port parameter there. Format of config file:

{
    "capabilities": [
        {
            "browserName": "chrome",
        }
    ],
    "port": 5555,
}

Then start your node with

java -jar /path_to_driver/serve.jar -role node -hub HUB_ADDRESS -nodeConfig /path_to_node_config/node-config.json

More config options you can find HERE Detailed about configuration in Selenium 3
