Configuring the Network Ports
By default the NSS runs network services on their well known (IETF defined) port numbers. You can
change the port on which any particular service runs. When you disable WAN access for a given
service, only hosts on the same subnet as the NSS may connect to that service. This is in essence a
shortcut to manually defining an equivalent network filter.
To set up the network services:
1. From the
Manager Menu
, click
Network
Ports.
The
Network Ports Configuration
page appears.
2. Change the port assignment for any of the following service types:
•
FTP/FTPS Port:
The well-known port setting is 21. Select
Disable WAN Access
to disallow FTP
and FTPS protocol access to the NSS from a WAN.
•
Web Server Port:
The well-known port setting is 80. Note that to access the NSS GUI, you
must have either the HTTP port or HTTPS port enabled. Select
Disable WAN Access
to
disallow HTTP protocol access to the NSS from a WAN.
•
SSL Web Server Port:
The well-known port setting is 443. Select
Disable WAN Access
to
disallow HTTPS protocol access to the NSS from a WAN.
3. Click
