HTTPS Access for StarlingX REST and Web Server Endpoints

When secure HTTPS connectivity is enabled, HTTP is disabled.

Note

When you change from HTTP to HTTPS, or from HTTPS to HTTP:

  • Remote CLI users must re-source the rc file.

  • Public endpoints are changed to HTTP or HTTPS, depending on which is enabled.

  • You must change the port portion of the Horizon Web interface URL.

    For HTTPS, use https:<oam-floating-ip-address>:8443

  • You must logout and re-login into Horizon for the HTTPS Access changes to be displayed accurately in Horizon.

Moving forward, the system will be have HTTPS enabled by default, as the REST API & Web Server certificate will be issued from bootstrap using the Platform Issuer (system-local-ca). This certificate will be renewed by cert-manager, and can be updated using procedure in migrate-platform-certificates-to-use-cert-manager-c0b1727e4e5d.
