Firewall and port redirection using iptables for standalone deployment
Hybrid Data Pipeline Web UI and API endpoints are exposed by default on port 8080 for HTTP connections or port 8443 for HTTPS connections. The iptables firewall utility can be used to route connections from the standard HTTP port 80 and HTTPS port 443 to these endpoints. In this scenario, ports 80 and 443 will be accessible to everyone, while ports 8080 and 8443 are only accessible to processing running on the server.
The instructions in the following topics can be applied to RedHat 7, Oracle 7 and Centos 7 distributions of Linux.
Please see the documentation for your Linux distribution for more information about configuring the firewall.
Note: If you are using a Suse 12 distribution of Linux, use the YaST2 Firewall setting GUI to configure your firewall. In Suse 12 you can find the firewall setting under Applications > System Tools > YaST > Adiministrator Settings/Security and Users/Firewall.
