Network rules

Defining network rules to enhance the security.

To lock down the communication in between the reverse proxy and SonarQube, you can define the following network rules:

Protocol	Source	Destination	Port	Default
TCP	Reverse Proxy	SonarQube	sonar.web.port	9000
TCP	SonarQube	SonarQube	sonar.search.port	9001
TCP	SonarQube	SonarQube	sonar.es.port	random

You can further segment your network configuration if you specify a frontend network and keep Elasticsearch restricted to the loopback NiC.

Network	Parameter	Description	Default
Frontend	sonar.web.host	Frontend HTTP Network	0.0.0.0
Elasticsearch	sonar.search.host	Elasticsearch Network	127.0.0.1

For information about the parameters, see List of properties common to all editions.
