Modify 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 associated with these endpoints in the console.

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

1. In the console, click Servers > Server Types > WebSphere proxy servers > proxy_server_name > Communications > Ports.

2. Select the port to modify.

   The host and port 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 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.

What to do next

Restart the server. The server must be restarted for this modification to go into effect.
