In some cases, it may be preferable to have MongoDB more secure than it is by default. While MongoDB isn't configured in our application to work with authentication, it can be locked down so that connections outside of the server are by default, rejected. Since all connections to Mongo are proxied directly through the Web Server, this will not interfere with users who are externally accessing GlobalCapture or GlobalAction.
Performing this action is fairly simple, as it requires only a very small modification of the Mongo Configuration file.
...
- Stop Mongo DB service
- Open the mongod.cfg File (located in the Getsmart directory)
- Add the following line to the config file:
bind_ip=127.0.0.1
- Save your configuration file
- Restart the Mongo DB service
