The following steps details how to change the IP and port number of Apex Central. For sample purposes and to make the steps easier to follow, assume that you want to change the target IP to 10.1.25.10. You also want to change the http port to 80 and the https port to 443.

  1. Stop all Trend Micro services:
    • Trend Micro Management Infrastructure (TMI)
    • Trend Micro Common CGI (CCGI)
    • Trend Micro Apex Central
  2. On the the Apex Central root folder, update systemconfig.xml by running the following commands:
    • XMLModify.exe "m_strWebServer_HostName" "10.1.25.10" "SystemConfiguration.xml"
    • XMLModify.exe "m_strLoopBackIP" "10.1.25.10" "SystemConfiguration.xml"
    • XMLModify.exe "m_uiWebServer_Port" "80" "SystemConfiguration.xml"
    • XMLModify.exe "m_uiWebServer_Https_Port" "443" "SystemConfiguration.xml"
  3. Update the following registry keys:
     
    Always back up the whole registry before making any modifications. Incorrect changes to the registry can cause serious system problems.
     

    HKLM\Software\TrendMicro\TVCS\ WebAddress = 10.1.25.10
    HKLM\Software\TrendMicro\TVCS\ WebPort = 80
    HKLM\Software\TrendMicro\TVCS\ SSLPort = 443

    If the server is 64-bit:

    HKLM\Software\Wow6432node\TrendMicro\TVCS\ WebAddress = 10.1.25.10
    HKLM\Software\Wow6432node\TrendMicro\TVCS\ WebPort = 80
    HKLM\Software\Wow6432node\TrendMicro\TVCS\ SSLPort = 443
