Network and Firewall

In this section you will find a summary about the recommended network and firewall settings for Kong.

Ports

Kong uses multiple connections for different purposes.

• proxy
• admin api

Proxy

The proxy ports is where Kong receives its incoming traffic. There are two ports with the following defaults:

• 8000 for proxying HTTP traffic, and
• 8443 for proxying HTTPS traffic

See proxy_listen for more details on HTTP/HTTPS proxy listen options. For production environment it is common to change HTTP and HTTPS listen ports to 80 and 443.

Kong can also proxy TCP/TLS streams. The stream proxying is disabled by default. See stream_listen for additional details on stream proxy listen options, and how to enable it (if you plan to proxy anything other than HTTP/HTTPS traffic).

In general the proxy ports are the only ports that should be made available to your clients.

Admin API

This is the port where Kong exposes its management API. Hence in production this port should be firewalled to protect it from unauthorized access.

• 8001 provides Kong’s Admin API that you can use to operate Kong with HTTP. See admin_listen.

  Important: If you need to expose the admin_listen port to the internet in a production environment, secure it with authentication.

• 8444 provides the same Kong Admin API but using HTTPS. See admin_listen and the ssl suffix.

Firewall

Below are the recommended firewall settings:

• The upstream Services behind Kong will be available via the proxy_listen interface/port values. Configure these values according to the access level you wish to grant to the upstream Services.
• If you are binding the Admin API to a public-facing interface (via admin_listen), then protect it to only allow trusted clients to access the Admin API. See also Securing the Admin API.
• Your proxy will need have rules added for any HTTP/HTTPS and TCP/TLS stream listeners that you configure. For example, if you want Kong to manage traffic on port 4242, your firewall will need to allow traffic on said port.
