How to Configure SSL in Admin UI

This guide outlines how to configure SSL settings within the Admin UI of VeeCode DevPortal for secure communication.

Prerequisites

• Access to the Admin UI.
• The public IP address of the EC2 instance running the VeeCode platform.
• Basic understanding of SSL (Secure Sockets Layer) and its importance for secure communications.

Steps

Step 1: Access the Admin UI

1. Login to Admin UI: Open the Admin UI through your browser.
2. Navigate to Config: Once logged in, click on the "Config" tab in the Admin UI menu.

Step 2: SSL Configuration

1. Select Admin UI Host:
   • In the Config section, select "Admin-ui host".
   • Enter the public IP address obtained from the EC2 console into the appropriate field.
2. Modify the URL:
   • Replace the base URL with the public IP to ensure that the Admin UI communicates with the correct services.
3. Enable/Disable SSL:
   • In the SSL field, enable or disable SSL depending on your security requirements. Activating SSL ensures secure communication between the services.

warning

Each time the EC2 instance is restarted, a new public IP address is generated. If you require a static IP address to avoid repeated configuration, this can be set up through the AWS Marketplace. However, be aware that this will incur additional costs for the user.
