1. The escaped single quotes around the remote-locators property are because of the comma.

2. If these commands are being tested on the same host, then in addition to the locator ports, the following ports will also need to be unique and configured on the command line:

• jmx-manager-http-port (configured like --J=-Dgemfire.jmx-manager-http-port=8081)

• jmx-manager-port (configured like --J=-Dgemfire.jmx-manager-port=1091)

The figure below shows the locators connected to each other across the WAN network.
