Constant DEFAULT_HTTP_BIND_ADDR 

Source 
pub const DEFAULT_HTTP_BIND_ADDR: SocketAddr;
Expand description

Default bind address for the public HTTP server (0.0.0.0:8443).

This binds to all network interfaces (0.0.0.0), which is appropriate for public-facing deployments where the node must be reachable from external clients.

Port 8443 is the standard unprivileged HTTPS alternative port, avoiding the need for root/elevated privileges required by port 443.

For development or internal-only deployments, use 127.0.0.1 (loopback only) via ApplicationNodeBuilder::http_bind_addr to avoid exposing the server to the network.
