Overview
In this tutorial, you will learn how to create listeners with SpecterInsight.
Viewing Listeners
After logging into a server, select Operations > Listeners. You should see a screen similar to the one shown here that lists all of the enabled or disabled listeners.
Adding a Listener
Click on the “Add” button to create a new Listener. The “Prefix” allows the operator to specify the protocol, interfaces, and ports for the listener.
| Prefix | Description |
|---|---|
| http://+ | Binds to all interfaces on port 80 for unencrypted HTTP connections. |
| http://192.168.1.101:8080 | Binds to the interface with the IP 192.168.1.101 on port 8080 for unencrypted HTTP connections. |
| https://+:8443 | Binds to all interfaces on port 8443 for encrypted HTTPS connections. |
When using “https” as the protocol, you will be prompted to select an SSL certificate from the list of certificates loaded into the SpecterInsight server.
Result
After clicking the “Add Listener” button, you should now see the new Listener in the table in an “Enabled” state. You can enable, disable, or remove a Listener by selecting the desired Listener from the table and then clicking one of the appropriate buttons at the top.
