You only need to use RemoteAuxPort if your firewall is not leaving some
unused ports open. In that case, decide which port you want the engine to
use for event traffic and open that port to the users of your
network. Then set RemoteAuxPort in firebird.conf to correspond. And, yes,
you do have to stop and restart the Firebird service[s] for ANY new
firebird.conf setting to kick in. (Or, in the case of a Classic server,
disconnect and reconnect)..

You don't. It's the server that decides whether to use a specific port or
random ports, in accord with the firebird.conf setting. The plumbing is
all taken care of at a lower level.
