To avoid exposing an additional port, AppServer port 2880, you can configure Apache HTTP Server to act as a reverse proxy. 

1. Enable mod_proxy and mod_proxy_http modules using a2enmod script within Apache configuration. 

$ a2enmod proxy
$ a2enmod proxy_http

/opt/WSC# curl https://localhost/wscservice/api/?cmd=status --insecure
