Summary
After upgrading IWSVA 6.5 to SP1 or later, the web console uses HTTPS. If it is restored to HTTP via configtomcat restore, accessing it will no longer be possible.
Details
This usually happens when the traffic through HTTP port 1812 is not allowed.
For example:
[root@iwsva ~]# iptables -nL | grep 1812
[root@iwsva ~]#
You will need to manually add an iptables rule to allow HTTP traffic on port 1812:
[root@iwsva ~]# iptables -I LOCAL_SERV_IN -p tcp --dport 1812 -j ACCEPT
The iptables entry will look as follows:
[root@iwsva ~]# iptables -nL
Chain LOCAL_SERV_IN (1 references)
target prot opt source destination
ACCEPT tcp -- 0.0.0.0/0 0.0.0.0/0 tcp dpt:1812
After manually adding the iptables rule, it will be possible to access the IWSVA web console via HTTP on port 1812.
