config.xml and connection-filter-rule

[Laurel]

Hi Dear Erman!
I jus finished upgrade test env to 12.2.11  and 19c and implemented that ebs_system as well for curiosity
on test env.Most fresh versions.

One thing bothers me
 $FMW_HOME/user_projects/domains/EBS_domain_SID/config/config.xml
The admin server did not start.. due to those rules defined for security / new feature
<connection-filter-rule>xxx.domain.com* * allow</connection-filter-rule>

If just put webserver host.domain.com, then cannot login to weblogic from my pc.
at the same time it does not accept to put just *domain.com as well.

The only way I could start was to remove all those <connection-filter-rule> lines.
Did you enconter this ?
In perfect world would like to set that all connections from mine domain are OK. But its not working
and I do have the latest patches :)

Thx and Take care!
Laurel

Hi Laurel,

It seem you update config.xml manually, but! remember that, autoconfig will overwrite it..

If you apply R12.TXK.C.DELTA.11 (Patch 28840822) or CPU patch Apr 2019 (or higher), Oracle WLS network connection filters will be enabled by default.

Please check ->

Cloning Oracle E-Business Suite Release 12.2 with Rapid Clone (Doc ID 1383621.1)
"Appendix B: Enabling access to the Oracle WebLogic AdminServer console when Connection Filter is enabled"

So do the enabling as given in the appendix above and then check the situation..

Also note the following;
