Enforce HTTPS protocol

Enforce HTTPS protocol

Standard Case

Starting from Terminal Service Plus version 9.20, you can redirect every web request which uses HTTP to the HTTPS secure protocol.
To activate this feature on a server, edit (or create) the file "C:\Program Files (x86)\TSplus\Clients\webserver\settings.bin" and add the following line:
disable_http_only=true
Save the file and restart Terminal Service Plus web servers (AdminTool > Web > Restart Web Servers or reread configuration by accessing http://127.0.0.1/w0j3?settings.bin).
Once this feature is enabled, you can try to browse to the insecure web page at:
http://your-server
and it will automatically redirect your request to the secure Web Portal page at:
https://your-server

Disable http on https

By default it is allowed to access https://my-domain.com, https://my-domain.com:80, http://my-domain.com:443 So it allows http on port 443 or allow https on port 80, it does not have impact on security and makes it easy to fallback to degraded xhr-connection when no websockets support is possible But if wished to disable it, edit the settings.bin file and add the following line:
disable_http_on_https=true
Then restart Terminal Service Plus web servers (AdminTool > Web > Restart Web Servers or reread configuration http://127.0.0.1/w0j3?settings.bin)
