By default, Tufin TOS runs with Apache configured to listen on port 443/tcp to accept HTTPS only. In some installations users are used to type http:// only - so a redirect might be useful. Since on machines running Tufin TOS (mostly) only this applilcation is active, the change of the apache configuration can be done globally and doesn't require things like VirtualHosts etc.


To make Tufin listen on Port 80/tcp for HTTP in cleartext and to redirect this request to Port 443/tcp to use HTTPS these steps are necessary:

- Backup your original configuration file /etc/httpd/conf/httpd.conf and keep in a safe place

- Edit the file /etc/httpd/conf/httpd.conf :

- Now it's time to restart the web server running on the system. You can do it by executing
     service httpd restart
  or by executing the command
     /etc/init.d/httpd restart

- You will need to check if there are any error messages, for sure. And - please test the configuration to be sure it works as you want
