Change the Network Interface Bindings

To increase the security of the Administrator Console user interface, Sterling B2B Integrator binds only to specific network interfaces. After installing, if the URL returns the error message Page cannot be displayed, adjust the property settings to correct the problem.

To update the property settings, complete the following steps:

  1. On the server where Sterling B2B Integrator resides, edit the noapp.properties_platform_ifcresources_ext.in file.
  2. Locate the admin_host parameter.
    • Where hostname1 is the name of primary network interface, the one given highest priority by Sterling B2B Integrator.
    • and localhost is the name of the network interface on the server where Sterling B2B Integrator resides.
    For example:
    • admin_host.1 = hostname1
    • admin_host.2 = localhost
  3. If no interface is being displayed, edit hostname1 so that it correctly identifies the primary network interface that accesses Sterling B2B Integrator.
  4. If an additional network interface needs to access Sterling B2B Integrator, add an additional admin_host entry.
    For example:
    • admin_host.1 = hostname1
    • admin_host.2 = localhost
    • admin_host.3 = hostname2
  5. Stop Sterling B2B Integrator.
  6. Navigate to \<install_dir>\bin.
  7. Enter setupfiles.cmd for Windows or setupfiles.sh for Linux.
  8. Restart Sterling B2B Integrator.
