Cockpit usually requires that web browsers communicate with it using HTTPS, for security reasons.
Cockpit listens for both HTTP and HTTPS connections on the same port, by default 9090. If an HTTP connection is made, Cockpit will redirect that connection to HTTPS. There are some exceptions:
If an HTTP connection comes from 127.0.0.0/8
, then
Cockpit will allow communication without redirecting to HTTPS.
Certain URLs, like /ping
are not required to use
HTTPS.
