Enabling and disabling the web user interface

You can enable and disable the web user interface by using the mqsichangeproperties command.

Before you start:

Read the following topics:
- Administering brokers using the web user interface
- Managing web user accounts
Ensure that a web user interface server has been configured, as described in Configuring the web user interface server.

All new brokers have the web user interface assigned to port 4414 when they are created, and the port is enabled by default. As a result, the web user interface is enabled automatically when a new broker is created.

You can disable the web user interface by using the mqsichangeproperties command to change the enabled property of the webadmin component to false; by default, it is set to true. For example:

mqsichangeproperties IB9NODE -b webadmin -o server -n enabled -v false

You can change this property either when the broker is stopped or while it is running. If you make changes while the broker is running, they take effect when the broker is restarted.

You can also change the port number for the web user interface by using the mqsichangeproperties command; for example:

mqsichangeproperties IB9NODE -b webadmin -o HTTP[S]Connector -n port -v new port

You can change this property only when the broker is running, and the change takes effect when the broker is restarted. Alternatively, you can use the IBM Integration Explorer to enable or disable the web user interface, and to change the port number to which it is assigned.

For brokers that were created in WebSphere® Message Broker Version 8.0.0.0, the web user interface is enabled in later versions only if you enabled it in Version 8.0.0.0. If you created brokers in Version 8.0.0.0 and did not enable the web user interface, it remains disabled for those brokers in subsequent versions. The web user interface is not enabled automatically for brokers that are migrated from WebSphere Message Broker Version 6.1 or Version 7 to later versions of the product.
