Syntax
webserver bind -netdevice <netdevice> [-port <port>] [-force] [-restart] [-ipv6]
| Argument(s) | Shortcut | Description |
|---|---|---|
| -netdevice <netdevice> | -n |
Network device that REST API Service is to use for communication. Valid values: all, eth0, eth1, eth2, eth3, bond0, bond1 Default: all (0.0.0.0 i.e. bound to all IPv4 devices) |
| -force | -f |
Force the action without prompting. |
| -port <port> | -p |
Network port that REST API service is to use for communication. Range: 1024 to 65535 NOTE Using Luna Appliance Software 7.8.5 or older, LunaSH allows you to set a port in the range 80-65535, but setting a port number lower than 1024 prevents sessions from opening. Refer to known issue RAPI-4018. Default: 8443 |
| -restart | -r |
Restart the REST API service if parameter is specified. Otherwise, the administrator must restart the REST API service by running service start webserver. |
| -ipv6 | -i | Use with webserver bind all to bind all IPv6 devices. This parameter is not required when binding to a specific IPv6 device (eth0, eth1, eth2, or eth3), or a specific bonded device (bond0 or bond1). |
