No, it's designed to be used in both server and client. All remote-subsystem
settings are configurable for the client too. Ability to specify a port
number in the connection string is just an extra way to do the same. Note
that it's impossible to specify port number in the connection string for
Named Pipes and IPC/XNET - only via firebird.conf.
