Modifying the HTTP endpoints that the proxy server listens on

By default, the proxy server listens on the following named endpoints: PROXY_HTTP_ADDRESS and PROXY_HTTPS_ADDRESS. We can modify the ports and hosts that are associated with these endpoints in the administrative console.

 

About this task

Modify the ports and hosts that are associated with the proxy server endpoints as follows:

 

Procedure

  1. Click Servers > Proxy servers > server_name > Communications > Ports in the administrative console.
  2. Select the port you want to modify.

    The host and port that are associated with the specified endpoints can be modified to suit the requirements of the deployment. The administrator must ensure for correct routing, the virtual hosts that are associated with applications to be routed to are correctly updated with the appropriate host aliases (host aliases with the modified host and port combinations).

  3. Click Apply.
