I said in an earlier message, you need to edit /etc/sysconfig/iptables and add port allows, following the install document section 4 4. Configure iptables To serve data from an EDEX server, iptables must allow TCP connections on ports 5672, 9581 and 9582. The following lines added to /etc/sysconfig/iptables, followed by the command service iptables restart, will correctly configure iptables for EDEX. -A INPUT -p tcp -m tcp --dport 5672 -j ACCEPT -A INPUT -p tcp -m tcp --dport 9581 -j ACCEPT -A INPUT -p tcp -m tcp --dport 9582 -j ACCEPT Ticket Details =================== Ticket ID: EUD-159315 Department: Support AWIPS Priority: Normal Status: Open
