Usage Guidelines

Usage Scenario

By default, the port number of an HTTPS server is 443. Attackers may frequently access an HTTPS server through the default port, consuming bandwidth, deteriorating server performance, and causing authorized users unable to access the server. You can run the http secure-server port command to specify another port number to prevent attackers from accessing the default port.

Precautions

If the http secure-server port command is configured several times, only the latest configuration takes effect.
