changing platform portal port on VSNext

Wolfgang — Wed, 12 Mar 2025 12:48:44 GMT

We are trying to use MobileAccessBlade with R82 VSNext...

We want to change the port of the GAiA portal to 4434, normally this can be done via platform portal setting, but this option is not available if the gateway object is a VSNext object.

How to change the platform portal setting?

Historically VSs don't have the Gaia portal, so there was never a need to change the port. I don't have my VSNext lab up at the moment so I can't check if it behaves differently. Are you having issues with MAB portal access here?

HI @Wolfgang,

It seems like a bug blocking this option.

As a potential WA till it get fix, you can create the VS 0 object using mgmt api and not SMC wizard, this will not fetch the platform type (will only be fetched if you'll push get button) and the option will be available.

Regards,

Shai.

@emmap thanks. We had problems changing the URL of MAB portal. There is a conflict with the default GAiA portal URL. We could fix it by changing the parameter of the GAiA portal via GUIdbedit. The value exists but is not shown in the Smartconsole.

FWIW The latest SmartConsole build references a fix for the platform portal on VSNext objects

PRJ-60450,PMTR-115965 - In VSNext mode, the Platform Portal option in the Gateway object navigation bar may not be visible.
