Targeting for consideration in JON320

Comment 3 Larry O'Leary 2013-06-26 12:50:40 UTC
This BZ represents a request that the AS7 / EAP 6 managed plug-in needs to support SSL (HTTPS) along with client auth to handle cases in where the EAP HTTP management interface has been secured using SSL.

So basically, now AS7/EAP is SSL by default, and requires a lot more configuration on part of user.

I think there's a misunderstanding on the meaning of "needs to support" instead of "requires".

Who said that?

Unless I missed something, AS7Plugin now supports but does not require SSL protected servers.

Well, I said it :)

Well, the problem is, that when discovering new AS7 servers, it uses the management-https port by default, leading to us having to change the port to standard mangement-http manually and turn off encryption.

I made a question on the RHQ forums about the same, and asked if there was any setting to override this behaviour.

AS7 plugin *chooses* https port if it is configured. It's a preference when both http and https port are accessible.

Hmm... so any way to override this choice and only use http? Because otherwise we will need to change all our AS7 servers to not have management-https configured or do a lot of changes in RHQ.

Moving to ON_QA as available to test with brew build of DR01: https://brewweb.devel.redhat.com//buildinfo?buildID=373993
