Description
Web servers provide numerous processes, features, and functionalities that use TCP/IP ports. Some of these processes may be deemed unnecessary or too unsecure to run on a production system. The ports that Lookup Service listens on are configured in the "catalina.properties" file and must be verified as accurate to their shipping state.

Check Text (C-256734r888793_chk)

At the command prompt, run the following command: # grep '\.port' /usr/lib/vmware-lookupsvc/conf/catalina.properties Expected result: base.shutdown.port=-1 base.jmx.port=-1 bio-custom.http.port=7090 bio-custom.https.port=8443 If the output of the command does not match the expected result, this is a finding.

Fix Text (F-60352r888792_fix)

Navigate to and open: /usr/lib/vmware-lookupsvc/conf/catalina.properties Navigate to the port's specification section. Set the Lookup Service port specifications according to the shipping configuration below: base.shutdown.port=-1 base.jmx.port=-1 bio-custom.http.port=7090 bio-custom.https.port=8443 Restart the service with the following command: # vmon-cli --restart lookupsvc
