Move the GUI to an Alternate Port

Moving the GUI to a non-standard, random port is also beneficial. This does not improve the actual security of the GUI itself, but can potentially reduce the number of brute force attempts. The GUI can still be found by scanners unless the port is properly filtered.

The port for the GUI can be changed under System > Advanced, Admin Access tab, using the TCP Port option in the

webConfigurator section. Avoid common ports like 443, 31337, 8080, 8888, etc.
