Modes of Operation

The recommended mode of operation is to have Red Hat Content Accelerator running as the main web server and Apache run as the assistant.

• Client Port: 8080 (or other)

• Web Server Port: 80

For the recommend mode where Red Hat Content Accelerator is the main web server, the configuration for the user-space daemon must be changed to use port 8080. For Apache configuration, the changes are made in the configuration file /etc/httpd/conf/httpd.conf by changing the line

Port 80

to

Port 8080

For security reasons, the line

BindAddress *

should be changed to

BindAddress 127.0.0.1

This will prevent outside users from accessing Apache directly. You must restart Apache for the changes to take effect with the command /etc/rc.d/init.d/httpd restart.

The alternate mode of operation is to have the user-space daemon such as Apache as the main web server and Red Hat Content Accelerator as the assistant.

• Client Port: 80

• Web Server Port: 8080 (or other)
