Configuring Remote Access to the Application Server (SRC CLI)

Before you can start using the application server, you need to configure and enable access to the application server. You can make the application server accessible through secure HTTP (HTTPS) or HTTP.

• Configuring Access to the Application Server Through HTTP

Configuring Access to the Application Server Through Secure HTTP

Before you configure access to the application server through HTTPS, obtain a digital security certificate on the system.

To make the application server accessible through HTTPS:

1. From configuration mode, access the statement that configures access through HTTPS.
   user@host# edit slot 0 application-server web https
2. Specify which TCP port is to receive incoming connection requests for the application server.
   [edit slot 0 application-server web https]
   user@host# set port port
3. Specify the interface to be used for connections to the application server.
   [edit slot 0 application-server web https]
   user@host# set interface interface

   On a C-series Controller, use eth1 for built-in Web applications; you can use eth0 for demonstration applications.

4. Specify the name of the certificate on the local system.
   [edit slot 0 application-server web https]
   user@host# set local-certificate local-certificate
5. (Optional) Configure user accounts to allow specified clients to authenticate with the application server.

Configuring Access to the Application Server Through HTTP

To make the application server accessible through HTTP:

1. From configuration mode, access the statement that configures access through HTTP.
   user@host# edit slot 0 application-server web http
2. Specify which TCP port is to receive incoming connection requests for the application server.
   [edit slot 0 application-server web http]
   user@host# set port port
3. Specify the interface to be used for connections to the application server.
   [edit slot 0 application-server web http]
   user@host# set interface interface

   On a C-series Controller, use eth1 for built-in Web applications; you can use eth0 for demonstration applications.

4. (Optional) Configure user accounts to allow specified clients to authenticate with the application server.
