             Summary: optionally specify TCP port for Jetty HTTP server in console
                 Key: EDGENT-439
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/EDGENT-439
             Project: Edgent
          Issue Type: Bug
          Components: Console
    Affects Versions: Apache Edgent 1.1.0
            Reporter: Edward Pring
            Priority: Minor


In org.apache.edgent.console.server.HttpServer, the server port is hardwired to "0", so Jetty chooses a random port number each time it starts. This is a problem when Edgent runs in a Docker container. By default, Docker blocks access to all ports in a container. Port access can be enabled for a specific port by number when a container is created, but not after it has started running.

Perhaps Edgent could honor a port number if specified with "java *-Djetty.http.port=8080* ...", or use "0" if not.
