Event Type: Error
Event Source: Server ActiveSync
Event ID: 3024
Description: IP-based AUTD failed to initialize.  Error code: [0x80004005].

Cause:
This problem occurs because the DNS Server service is listening on a UDP port that is used by another service.

Resolution:
In order to resolve this conflict, we need to reserve the AUTD UDP port so that DNS does not attempt to use it creating a conflict.

To configure the ReservedPorts registry value, follow these steps:
Click Start, click Run, type regedit, and then click OK.
Locate and then click the following subkey: HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Services\Tcpip\Parameters
Right-click ReservedPorts, and then click Modify.
Add the following to the existing list of values:
2883-2883
reserved-ports
Click OK

Note: If you receive the following warning message, simply click OK

Warning:
Data of type REG_MULTI_SZ cannot contain empty strings.
Registry Editor will remove the empty string found.
