Configuring HTTPS tunneling settings for clients using port 443

Configure the IBM® Sametime® Community Services to listen for client communications using the new DNS and port 443.

Before you begin

You must have already assigned an additional IP address to the Sametime server, then mapped a new DNS to it for use by the Community Services.

Procedure

  1. Log in to the Integrated Solutions Console as the WebSphere administrator.
  2. Click Sametime System Console > Sametime Servers > Sametime Community Servers.
  3. In the Sametime Community Servers list, click the name of the Community Server that you want to update.
  4. On the Connectivity tab, click Connectivity.
  5. In the Community Services Network section, under Server Connections > HTTPS Tunneled Client Connections, complete the following fields:
    • Host name: Enter community-base_DNS
      For example, if your base DNS for the server is sametime1.example.com, type the following name for the new DNS:
      community-sametime1.example.com
    • Port: Enter 443
  6. Click OK.
  7. Save your changes to the master configuration by clicking the Save link in the "Messages" box at the beginning of the page.

Results

With this configuration, the Sametime Community Mux will listen for HTTPS-tunneled connections using host name community-sametime1.example.com on port 443.
