How to restrict the JobScheduler Master to listen to specific network interfaces only when using http or https

This feature is available with JobScheduler Master releases starting from 1.11.4
JS-1722 - Getting issue details... STATUS

Use the attribute http_port and https_port in ./config/scheduler.xml

<spooler>
   
   <config mail_xslt_stylesheet="config/scheduler_mail.xsl" 
           http_port="40444"
           https_port="48444"
   >
   ...
   </config>
 </spooler>

• In above example the JobScheduler Master listens to all available interfaces when using http and https.
• The http port and the https port must have different port numbers.

Indicating which network interfaces should listen to when using http

• The value of attribute http_port in the config element of the ./config/scheduler.xml can have the form http_port="[ip address or hostname:]port"
• If only a port is specified then the JobScheduler Master listens to all available network interfaces.
• It is the same like http_port="0.0.0.0:port".
• If a hostname or ip address is specified in addition then it indicates which network interfaces the JobScheduler Master should listen to.

Indicating which network interfaces should listen to when using https

• The value of attribute https_port in the config element of the ./config/scheduler.xml can have the form https_port="[ip address or hostname:]port"
• If only a port is specified then the JobScheduler Master listens to all available network interfaces.
• It is the same like https_port="0.0.0.0:port".
• If a hostname or ip address is specified in addition then it indicates which network interfaces the JobScheduler Master should listen to.

Requirements

• A http port setting is required for some components of the JobScheduler Master such as the plugins and the startscript.
• It is not possible to use https only but you can bind "localhost" to the http port.
