Chapter 4. Deprecated functionality
This part provides an overview of functionality that has been deprecated in Red Hat Satellite 6.16.
Deprecated functionality will likely not be supported in future releases of this product and is not recommended for new deployments. For the most recent list of deprecated functionality within a particular major release, refer to the latest version of release documentation.
The support status of deprecated functionality remains unchanged within Red Hat Satellite 6.16. For information about the length of support, see Red Hat Enterprise Linux Life Cycle and Red Hat Enterprise Linux Application Streams Life Cycle.
Deprecated hardware components are not recommended for new deployments on the current or future releases. Hardware driver updates are limited to security and critical fixes only. Red Hat recommends replacing this hardware as soon as reasonably feasible.
A package can be deprecated and not recommended for further use. Under certain circumstances, a package can be removed from a product. Product documentation then identifies more recent packages that offer functionality similar, identical, or more advanced to the one deprecated, and provides further recommendations.

Capsule port 8443
Port 8443 on Capsules is deprecated in 6.16. This port is disabled by default on new installations and upgrades.
For new clients, use port 443 when communicating through a Capsule. If your existing clients use port 8443, reconfigure them to use port 443 in one of the following ways:
- Remote execution
-
The
katello-ca-consumerRPM -
Update the
/etc/rhsm/rhsm.conffile: In the[server]section of the file, ensure that theportoption is set to443
You can temporarily re-enable access to port 8443 by running the satellite-installer utility with the --foreman-proxy-content-reverse-proxy=true option. Note that re-enabling access to port 8443 is only a temporary solution. Make sure to migrate your integrations to call the API through your Satellite Server.
