Issue/Introduction
There are times when the default port of 8443 is undesirable when using the OTK. Such is the case when a load balancer is fronting the Gateway and communicates over port 443.
How can the hard-coded port, 8443, be modified in the OTK policies?
Environment
Release: Component: APIESM
Resolution
There are several policies that contain the hard-coded port. Depending on your needs you will need to modify these policies to remove the port. Open each policy and use the policy search to locate context variables containing '8443'.
For OTK 4.0 and newer some of these policies are read-only. You will need to copy the variables from the base policy into the corresponding hash policies, ie: #OTK Variable Configuration.
For 4.x, please reference the documentation located here: https://techdocs.broadcom.com/us/en/ca-enterprise-software/layer7-api-management/api-management-oauth-toolkit/4-4/customizing-the-oauth-toolkit/set-an-alternative-https-port.html
