Hi Sorts,
Welcome to our community!
For disabling the port 443, follow the instructions below:
- Login to firewall
- Go to Administration > Remote Management > Allow Secure HTTP management - NO
- Apply
- then check using a port scanner if it still open
- If still open, then look for the HTTPS service under inbound rules and delete it.
For enabling it on the outbound service:
- Go to Security > Firewall > LAN WAN Rules > Outbound Services > +Add
- Service : HTTPS
- Action : Allow always
- Specify the LAN and WAN users or leave it by default
- Then apply
