Enable HTTP Access to an Oracle SOA Cloud Service Instance
These instructions assume a load balancer has been enabled in your service instance. If there is no load balancer, you must instead create a network channel on all Managed Servers in your Oracle WebLogic Server domain. Refer to "Configuring Network Resources" in Administering Server Environments for Oracle WebLogic Server (12.2.1.4 | 12.2.1.3 | 12.2.1.2 | 12.1.3).
By default the load balancer in your service instance listens for HTTP traffic on port 8080. However, the load balancer VM automatically redirects incoming traffic on port 80 to port 8080.

Enable the HTTP Port on the Load Balancer
You must enable a port on the load balancer (Oracle Traffic Director) to accept HTTP traffic from the public Internet to your Oracle SOA Cloud Service instance.
Access to the Load Balancer Console is disabled by default. To enable the HTTP port on the load balancer:
The next task is to create an access rule for the port on the load balancer.
Create an Access Rule for the HTTP Port
You must create an access rule to allow public access to the load balancer (Oracle Traffic Director) through the HTTP port.
If you provisioned this service instance in an Oracle Cloud Infrastructure region, instead you must use the Oracle Cloud Infrastructure Console to create the access rules (security list). See Configure Security Lists and Security Lists in the Oracle Cloud Infrastructure Services Documentation.
You can now access your application by using the default HTTP port:
