Ports and Ciphers
The Validation Responder runs a web server for both HTTP and HTTPS connections to the Validation Responder. You can configure the ports and ciphers.
-
Enter the HTTP Port and HTTPS Port.
Two ports are used to make connections to the Validation Responder. By default, the server listens on the following ports:
-
3502 - HTTP interface
-
3602 - HTTPS interface
On Linux systems, if you change either of these ports to numbers less than 1024, then you must execute the server.sh script as the ‘root’ user. This might weaken system security; high-security sites choose to run their internal servers on port numbers greater than 1024, then externally map these addresses to default ports, such as 80 and 443, through a load balancer or firewall.
