Access WebLogic Server Administration and OTD Consoles in Oracle Cloud Infrastructure Classic

This topic applies only to Oracle Cloud Infrastructure Classic.

If you provision an Oracle SOA Cloud Service instance after 1 August 2020 and you are not able to access the WebLogic Server Administration or OTD Console URLs from your browser after provisioning, then you must create rules to allow traffic into your Administration Server VM.

Note:

Before performing these steps, be aware that this means that WebLogic Server allows inbound traffic to the known public IPs or CIDRs that you configure. Oracle recommends that you do not allow inbound traffic to be visible to unknown public IPs.

 

To add a rule to allow access to the WebLogic Server Admininistration or OTD Console URLs:

1. In the Oracle SOA Cloud Service Console, click for the desired service instance and select Manage Access Rules.
2. Click Create Rule to open the Create Access Rule dialog.
   
   
   
3. In the Create Access Rule dialog, create a rule to access the WebLogic Server Administration Console:
   1. In the Rule Name field, enter a name for the access rule.
   2. In the Source list, select <custom>, then enter the public IP address of the machine where the Administration Server URL is opened from a browser (for example, if your public IP address is x.x.x.x then enter x.x.x.x/32).
   3. In the Destination list, select WLS_ADMIN_HOST.
   4. In the Destination Port field, enter 7002.
   5. In the Protocol list, select TCP.
   6. Click Create.
   
   
   
4. Repeat the steps above to add another access rule to access the OTD Console, specifying a Destination Port of 8989 and a Destination of OTD_OTD_SERVER.
