How to change the port no. of Plesk

[mohitht]

Hi All,

By default the port no of plesk is 8443. Due to some security issues it can be changed to any other port no.

To change the default port no. we can first edit the configuration file of plesk

# vi etc/sw-cp-server/applications.d/plesk.conf

edit the following line
listen <port no>;

And also edit the following file
# vi /etc/sw-cp-server/conf.d/ipv6_ports.inc:

then enter the port number required for the plesk to work in the following line
listen   [::]:8443 ipv6only=on ssl;


After setting this we need to restart  the server by

# /etc/init.d/sw-cp-server restart

That's it
