You may configure the IBM Aspera Faspex Apache HTTP Server to use different
host name, communication port, and namespace.
-
Update the hostname.
The hostname used by apache is configured when you first install Faspex. Use this command to print the current
hostname:
$
asctl apache:hostname
To change the hostname, use the following command. Replace HOSTNAME
with the new hostname:
$
asctl apache:hostname HOSTNAME
Also update your SSL certificate to reflect the new hostname:
$
asctl apache:make_ssl_cert HOSTNAME
-
Change HTTP and HTTPS ports.
By default, Faspex uses standard ports for HTTP (80) and HTTPS (443).
Use the following commands to update these ports:
Item |
Command |
HTTP |
$ asctl apache:http_port NEW_HTTP_PORT
|
HTTPS |
$ asctl apache:https_port NEW_HTTPS_PORT
|
-
Change Faspex namespace.
Faspex uses the namespace
/aspera/faspex by default. Use this command to print the current
namespace:
$
asctl faspex:uri_namespace
To set the namespace to, for example, /faspex, use the following
command:
$
asctl faspex:uri_namespace /faspex
When the namespace is updated, advise your users of the new URL. For example, if your faspex
server's address is https://198.51.100.24/aspera/faspex
and you change the namespace to /faspex, they would use the following
URL: https://198.51.100.24/faspex.
