Disabling a Port
Disabling a port allows you to stop the port from accepting connections or dispatching more requests. For example, you may need to temporarily disable ports for testing, or disable the HTTP port and use only the HTTPS port for secure client requests. To disable a port, use the ACC reconfigure command and set the port to 0.
*To disable a port
1. Start the ACC.
2. Stop the load balancer component.
3. At the ACC command prompt type:
reconfigure loadbalancer_s +HTTPD.port=0
4. Start the load balancer component.
5. To verify that you have deactivated the port, try logging in. The welcome screen is not visible, if you have deactivated the port.
