Chapter 4
Web Interface

Starting with version 2.50 of the REX Control System, a highly optimized web server is integrated directly into RexCore. The server listens on port 8008 for HTTP connection and on port 8009 for HTTPS connections by default. A certificate and a private key must be installed to enable HTTPS connections. See chapter 6 for more information.

Although a big effort has been put into stabilization and testing of the integrated web server, an unexpected error may possibly have an impact on the execution of a control algorithm. If that is not acceptable for your critical application, please, consider disabling the integrated web server by setting the options server.http and server.http to "disabled" and wait for the next version of the REX Control System where the integrated web server will be put into another completely separated process.
