Connect to xenserver via another port instead of 443

[fan zhiyong]

Hi, everyone
I  know that the 443 port is used to connect to xenserver from xencenter, but  i have set up a routed network, and the 443 port have been used by  the other application. How  can another port is used to connect to xenserver from xencenter  instead of  port 443.

You have another application installed on XenServer that is using port 443 ?

The simple answer is no as this is the standard hhtps port. I cannot see why that same port cannot be shared with other applications.

I assume you're trying to ingress through a firewall to allow the Windows UI to run on the otherside of the firewall to where the hypervisor is located. Unfortunately you can't change the ports here as redirects would end up sending you the wrong port. Whether you can set a different virtual host on the firewall so that there are two different things exposing 443 based on the specific virtual host that is connected to would depend on the specific firewall system/application and whether it supports doing that.

A VPN can add an extra layer of security, if that's a concern. Just run your access IP address on a private network is also what I'd recommend, like a 10 subnet.
