Production Configuration

At this stage of the installation the Portal Dedicated should be running and can be integrated with Agents.

However for production use, there are a number of recommended improvements, including:

Securing Elasticsearch

  • Elasticsearch is now unsecured and communication is over http.
  • It is recommended to add access control restrictions and change Elasticsearch to SSL communication.

Using a CA Certificate

  • The Portal Dedicated is supplied with a self-signed certificate to enable SSL connection to the service.
  • This is sufficient for testing, but will generate a browser warning when connecting as the certificate won’t match the domain name and IP address of the server.
  • For use in production it is strongly recommended to use a CA issued certificate.
