Set up an HTTP to HTTPS redirect for Interaction Web Portal

You can configure Interaction Web Portal to redirect from HTTP, which sends data as plain text, to HTTPS, which encrypts the data sent and received with SSL. Configuring a redirect can improve the user experience.

You may receive HTTP Error 403.4 – Forbidden. The page that you are trying to access is secured with Secure Sockets Layer (SSL) when you try to browse to http://mydomain.com/iwp.

To configure automatic redirection from HTTP to HTTPS

From the Start menu, select Control Panel > Administrative Tools > Internet Information Services (IIS) Manager.
In the Connections area, click the + to expand the computer name, then click the + to expand the Sites node.
Click the website to which Interaction Web Portal is installed.
Select Features View at the bottom of the window.
Double-click HTTP Redirect. Or right-click HTTP Redirect and click Open Feature.
Click to select the Redirect requests to this destination check box, and then type the absolute Interaction Web Portal URL. For example, https://mydomain.com/iwp.
In the Redirect Behavior section, click to select the Only redirect requests to content in this directory (not subdirectories) check box.
In the Status code list, select Found (302).
Click Apply to save the settings.
Run the IISRESET command to put the settings into effect.
