This way,

  1. While startiing mongo pass port argument

    mongod --port your desired port

    mongod --port 19000

    Start Mongo with port:

    mongo --port your desired port

    mongo --port 19000

2.change the port in the mongodb.config file and pass the config file as input.

port = Ur desired port

Change the /etc/mongod.conf file for persistence

change net: section as

net:
   bindIp: 127.0.0.1
   port: <The port number you want to listen>

Command line option --port <port> can also be used but will not remain persistent and you need to specify the same every time you start Mongod
