How to change Wildfly server's IP address

Question

I'm working on preparing a program that runs on Wildfly for deployment to a customer site, and I need to change the IP address that Wildfly launches on. How do I configure Wildfly to start up at, for example, 127.0.0.2 instead of 127.0.0.1?

Update

I'm running Wildfly as a service on Windows.

Answer 1

You could set different ip address by changing public interface in the standalone.xml file. It should look like this:

<interface name="public">
    <inet-address value="${jboss.bind.address:127.0.0.2}"/>
</interface>

So, the server is now listening only on the specified ip address (after restarting). If you want allow all available network interfaces, you should place 0.0.0.0 instead (be careful with this).

Answer 2

Either you can bind the address through passing the arguments while starting the server like

./standalone.sh -c standalone-full.xml -b=127.0.0.2

or it can be configured in host.xml file

<interface name="public">

    <inet-address value="${jboss.bind.address:127.0.0.2}"/>

</interface>

Update : To run as service, you will need to set some variables in service.bat as well

set CONTROLLER=localhost:9990 // here set your ip:9990 and other required details

    set DC_HOST=master
    set IS_DOMAIN=false
    set LOGLEVEL=INFO
    set JBOSSUSER=admin  //management admin user
    set PASSWORD=pwd  //management admin password
