After you add a website to your Web Application Firewall (WAF) instance, you must configure HTTP or HTTPS port numbers to allow access to the website. Then, WAF can process requests that are sent over the configured ports to protect the website.
Background information
WAF protects services that use standard ports and non-standard ports. The non-standard ports include ports specified by WAF and ports that you customize. The number of supported ports and the allowed range of non-standard ports vary based on WAF editions. For more information, see Ports that each WAF edition supports.
Scenarios
- A website is added to WAF.
- The HTTP or HTTPS ports that the website uses change.
Procedure

If my website receives requests over an unconfigured port, is the origin server threatened?
Does WAF support custom server ports?
What do I do if services on non-standard ports cannot be added to WAF of the Pro edition?
