...

PhixFlow should always be configured to allow HTTPS connections to the webapp and to disable HTTP access.

Info
titleUsing default ports on Linux

If you want to make your web server visible on the default ports (http: 80, https: 443) on Linux, we recommend using a reverse proxy.

In this configuration, the reverse proxy runs as root, which allows it to use privileged ports (up to 1000), and forwards requests to the web server runs as a non-privileged user (normally 'tomcat'), on non-privileged ports (above 1000).


Warning
titleTomcat on Linux

Do not run Tomcat as root as this constitutes a security risk.

Reverse Proxy

We recommend that this is implemented using a reverse proxy to terminate the HTTPS session and to forward web requests using HTTP to the Tomcat server. This solution requires that the proxy and tomcat servers run on a private network (or on the same server), and that the tomcat server is not directly accessible by normal users.

...

To configure IIS as a reverse proxy on Windows, seeĀ here.

Tomcat

It is also possible to configure HTTPS directly in tomcat.
