Can the Port Number Be Changed for the Management Console?

Products

• Carbon Black App Control (formerly Cb Protection)

Issue/Introduction

Can the default port number (443) be changed for the management console?

Environment

• App Control Server: All Supported Versions
• Microsoft IIS: All Supported Versions

Resolution

No, port 443 is hard coded into the application and various portions of supporting pages.

Additional Information

• While the page can be bound to another port in IIS, doing so will cause the console to stop functioning properly.
• Alternatively the Resource Download Location can be adjusted to prevent exposing Port 443 to endpoints.
