About the HTTPS redirect listening port number
The device can redirect HTTPS requests only after you specify the TCP port number on which the
HTTPS redirect service listens for HTTPS requests.
Restrictions and guidelines
To avoid service unavailability caused by port conflict, do not specify a TCP port number used by a
well-known protocol or used by any other service. To display TCP port numbers that have been used
by services, use the display tcp command. For more information about this command, see IP
performance optimization commands in Layer 3—IP Services Command Reference.
If you perform this task multiple times, the most recent configuration takes effect.
