I am currently having a named instance only hosting on my SQLServer. But I just verified that I am able to connect to it from SSMS without specifying the named instance name and by specifying the port number. Here is what I am talking.
I am connecting to SQLServer this way from SSMS: SQLServer\NamedInstance,portnum
But I realized I am able to connect to SQLServer from SSMS even in this way: SQLServer,portnum
Can anyone tell me how can I block the second way of connecting to SQLServer?
Thanks for your help in advance.
