HTTP Is Turned off but Port 80 (HTTP) Is Still Open

Problem Description

HTTP is disabled on all network interface (under Network → Network Services) but port 80 (HTTP) is still open and not blocked by the LANTIME's internal firewall:

Cause

Since firmware version LTOS V7, a redirect from port 80 (HTTP) to port 443 (HTTPS) is configured by default in case HTTP is disabled on all network interfaces. This redirection can be disabled if needed.

Fix

The HTTP to HTTPS redirect can be turned off as follows:

  1. Connect to the command line interface of your LANTIME via SSH
  2. Run the following three commands:
    sudo lt_cfg /etc/mbg/http_redirect.cfg alter 'GENERAL' 'HTTP_REDIRECT' 'NO'
sudo saveconfig
sudo netconfig
