About the HPOM Java-Based Operator GUI
Secure HTTPS-based Java GUI Communication
b. The port on which opcuihttps is listening, used to establish a secure HTTPS-based
connection. The standard Java GUI uses the port 2531.
c. For full authentication, set also the startup parameter lcore_defaults to yes.
NOTE
You can check if it is possible to connect to the opcuihttps process using
a web browser, such as Internet Explorer or Mozilla. To do so, enter the
following:
https://:/opcuihttps/info
Where is an HP Operations management server hostname,
and is the port on which opcuihttps is listening.
Configuring the HTTPS-Based Java GUI Connection
Through Firewalls
For the HTTPS-based Java GUI to communicate with an HPOM
management server through a firewall, you can either configure the
firewall to allow the HTTPS-based Java GUI direct access to the HPOM
management server, or you can configure the HTTPS-based Java GUI to
use a proxy server for all communication with the HPOM management
server. The default port on which the opcuihttps process is listening on
the management server, is 35211. (The standard Java GUI uses port
3521.)
There are several different methods for specifying a proxy server for the
HTTPS-based Java GUI:
❏ Using the ito_op command line tool.
❏ Updating the itooprc file.
❏ In the Login dialog box.
❏ For Java GUI applets.
❏ Using the Core functionality.
See the HPOM Java GUI Operator’s Guide for more information about
each method.
