- In the New Station wizard, click the NewSupervisorStationLinux.nptl template and click OK.
The wizard walks you through the process of creating the station. - In the new station’s Services node, expand WebServices and confirm configuration of the following port settings:
- HTTP = 8080
- HTTPS = 8443
- In your network’s firewall, set up rules to do the following:
- redirect HTTP port 80 (external) to port 8080 (internal)
- redirect HTTPS port 443 (external) to port 8443 (internal)
This makes it appear to a remote client that the web server is running on port 80, but the framework redirects all requests sent to port 80 to port 8080 where the web server is listening for them. Similarly, the framework redirects requests sent to port 443 to port 8443.
