5. Specify the web server port number or use the default values, 443 for HTTPS and 8080 for HTTP. This option enables access to the Open iT web application using the address http(s)://<ingress_hostname>:<ingress_port_number>.

   Starting Open iT version 10.2, Ingress is set to HTTPS by default.

   • Using the SSL certificate and key, choose the HTTPS setup option that you prefer:
     • Clear the values of the SSL Cert and SSL Key fields. Caddy will automatically create the certificate and key using Let's Encrypt for the setup
     • Use the default values of the SSL Cert and SSL Key fields. After installation, you need to Configure HTTPS using Let's Encrypt
     • Provide your own values for the SSL Cert and SSL Key fields
   
   

   

   Default Installation Options
   
   
   • Using Certificate store - specify the Certificate Store and Location.
   
   

   

   HTTPS Option: Certificate Store
   
   
   • Using HTTP - allows you to browse the Open iT web application without encryption.
