Customizing the SafeLinx Administrator connection to the SafeLinx Server
After you've added a SafeLinx server, you can customize the settings related to connections from the SafeLinx Administrator to the SafeLinx Server.
Procedure
From the SafeLinx Administrator, right-click on the SafeLinx server and click
Properties. In the Gateway tab, configure any of the
following options:
Option | Description |

to the SafeLinx Server while it's running. Allows you to change the
configuration on a running server without restarting it. Default: Enabled |
Dynamic configuration RPC listen port | Port used to listen for requests from a SafeLinx Server. Default: 9551 |
Bind RPC services to a specific address | A specific IP address or addresses on a SafeLinx to use for
listening for requests. Use this setting to specify a loopback or
internal-facing IP address or to restrict access to a specific set of IP
addresses. Default: None |
