How to Limit HTML5 Access to Port 443

Post by dcipher » Thu Aug 06, 2015 12:40 am

Hi

I have setup TSPlus with IIS8.5 which is bound to port 81 and everything is working just fine. What I would like to know is if I can limit access to the HTML5 client to just 443 so that everything is using SSL. How should the ports be configured for both TSPLus and IIS8.5?

Thanks,
Simon

Hi Simon:
I have a couple thoughts. First, if possible, I would block port 80 at the firewall and be done with the issue. Second, and I don't know if this is supported or suggested (read 'proceed at your own caution'), but you might take at look at the settings.js file in the \TSPlus\Clients\www\software\html5 folder. There is a variable called 'w.forceawlays_ssl' which you could try setting to true.

Thanks I will look at the alwaysForceSSL. I cannot stop port 80 because an actual website is also on the server.
