8. Restart the Apache web server for the new certificate key to be used.
===== CentOS 5.x / 6.x | RHEL 5.x / 6.x | Oracle Linux 5.x / 6.x =====
# service httpd restart
===== CentOS 7.x | RHEL 7.x | Oracle Linux 7.x =====
# systemctl restart httpd.service
9. Allow port 443 inbound traffic on the local firewall so that the Nagios Core web interface can be reached.
===== CentOS 5.x / 6.x | RHEL 5.x / 6.x | Oracle Linux 5.x / 6.x =====
# iptables -I INPUT -p tcp --destination-port 443 -j ACCEPT
# service iptables save
# p6tables -I INPUT -p tcp --destination-port 443 -j ACCEPT
# service ip6tables save
===== CentOS 7.x | RHEL 7.x | Oracle Linux 7.x =====
# firewall-cmd --zone=public --add-port=443/tcp
# firewall-cmd --zone=public --add-port=443/tcp --permanent
10. Test the connection to the server by directing a web browser to
https:// serveNname /
.
There is no
nagios
/ extension in the URL. This is to test the connection to Apache to verify that the
certificate works.
If a self-signed certificate warning is returned, add a security exception. The Apache test web page will be
displayed upon success. The Nagios Core server can now be accessed by directing a web browser at
https:// serverName /nagios/
. More detailed information about this can be found in the following KB
article: https://support.nagios.com/kb/article.php?id=598 . If an error is returned, check the firewall and
backtrack through this document, making sure all the steps have been performed.
If a user points a browser at
http:// serverName
, they will be directed to
https:// serverName
, which
can cause certificate warnings. If it is required to redirect them to
https:// serverName . domain .com
,
change the
RewriteRule
in the
/etc/httpd/conf/httpd.conf
file.
RewriteRule (.*) https:// serverName . domain .com%{REQUEST_URI}
11. Restart the HTTPD service.
