Access Control Settings: HTTPS Ports Parent topic

HTTP > Configuration > Access Control Settings | HTTPS Ports
[Not available in the Bridge mode]
Use this page to specify which ports IWSVA will allow HTTPS tunneling. All HTTPS CONNECT requests to ports that are not explicitly listed here are denied.
Unlike with other IWSVA priorities (rules are evaluated according to priority; the first rule that matches will be applied and the others ignored), all the rules that appear in this list will be applied. Rules are evaluated from the bottom of the list to the top. As such, the first rule is the default rule; it is evaluated last.
The default configuration is to allow only HTTPS connections on port 443 (the default HTTPS port), 563 (the default port for encrypted news groups), 8443 (IWSVA secure console default port), and 1814 (the port for Captive Portal page used by Tomcat.).
Note
Note
To allow HTTPS connections to the IWSVA console, create a rule as follows: 
allow 8443
For example, the following rules and their order can be interpreted as follows:
  1. deny all—IWSVA closes all ports on the server
  2. allow 443—IWSVA opens port 443 (overrides rule 1)
  3. allow 563—IWSVA opens port 563 (overrides rule 1)
  4. deny 443—a mistake, but IWSVA will again deny access port 443 (overrides rule 2; agrees with, but nonetheless overrides, rule 1)
Top set the access control for HTTPS ports:
  1. Select Allow or Deny. (Default is Deny.)
  2. Select All ports, Port and Port Number, or Port range.
  3. Type a descriptive name in the Description field. (40 characters maximum)
  4. Click Add.
