Reconfiguring the HTTP Port: UNIX or Linux

Use these procedures to reconfigure the PortAssist Manager HTTP port. The default port is 8080. You will want to change this port if it is already in use on your system. You may also want to change it to port 80 to simplify access by browsers.

You can reconfigure these ports using either the graphical user interface (GUI) or the command line interface (CLI)
