4  Add the following line to the end of the “Allow from” list. 

Allow from [STB Staging Client IP]

 

Notes:   



 

Replace [STB Staging Client IP] with the IP address or hostname of the STB 
staging client. 



 

If a hostname is used, the hostname and IP address must be defined in the 
/etc/hosts file. 



 

An entire subnet can be allowed using slash notation. 

Example: The “Allow from” list should look similar to the following example: 

Order Allow,Deny

 

Allow from localhost

 

Allow from dncs dncs

 

Allow from dncsws

 

Allow from 172.16.30.1

 

Allow from 172.10.1.0/24

 

5  Will only HTTPS access, rather than HTTP, be allowed for the STB Staging web 

service? 



 

If yes, verify that the "SSLRequireSSL" line does not have “#” at the 
beginning of the line. The SSLRequireSSL line disables HTTP access to the 
STB Staging web service. 
Example: 

SSLRequireSSL

 



 

If no, HTTP and HTTPS support is required; go to step 6. 

6  Save and close the file. 
7  Follow these instructions to restart the DNCS http process. 

a  Type the following command and press Enter to stop the http process: 

svcadm -v disable -st http

 

b  Type the following command and press Enter to refresh the http process: 

svcadm refresh http

 

c  Type the following command and press Enter to restart the http process: 

svcadm -v enable -s http

 

Result: The system displays the svc:/network/http:apache2 enabled 
message.
