Conﬁguration of ports of the Web Interface

Use the TCP ports section to set ports for unencrypted and encrypted versions of the Web

interface (default ports are 4080 for the unencrypted and 4081 for the encrypted version of

the Web interface).

Figure11.2 Conﬁgurationof ports in WinRoute’s Web Interface

Hint: If no WWW server is running on the WinRoute host, the standard port of the HTTP

protocol (i.e. 80) can be used for the unsecured web interface and the standard port of the

HTTPS protocol (i.e. port 443) for the secured web interface. If standard ports are used, the

port number is not necessarily required in URLs for pages of the web interface.

However, in WinRoute for Windows, the standard HTTPS port (443) uses the Clientless SSL-VPN

interface (see chapter 24). Therefore, it cannot be used for secured web interface in the default

conﬁguration.

Warning

If any of the entries are speciﬁed by a port which is already used by another service or ap-

plication, and the Apply button (in Conﬁguration →Advanced Options) is clicked, WinRoute

will accept this port, however, the Web interface will not run at the port and an error in the

following format will be reported in the Error log (see chapter 22.8):

Socket error: Unable to bind socket for service to port 80.

(5002) Failed to start service "WebInterface"

bound to address 192.168.1.10.

If you are not sure that speciﬁed ports are free, check the Error log immediately after clicking

Apply to ﬁnd out whether the corresponding error has been logged.
