Figure 9.2 Configuration of ports in WinRoute’s Web Interface
HINT: If no WWW server is running on the WinRoute host, standard port (i.e. 80) for HTTP can be used for the unencrypted Web interface. In such a case, the port number is not necessarily required in URLs for pages of the unencrypted Web interfaces.
Warning: If any of the entries are specified by a port which is already used by another service or application, 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 20.8):
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.
