| ColdFusion MX includes a built-in Web server, the JRun Web server, designed to be used for development only. The built-in server can be accessed in the browser via the IP address 127.0.0.1 or using the server name localhost . You don't have to use the built-in Web server. ColdFusion also works with popular Web servers such as Microsoft Internet Information Server (IIS) and the Apache Web Server. Web servers listen on a particular TCP/IP port number. Port 80 is the default. Thus, if no port number is specified in the URL, port 80 is assumed. So http://www.greendept.com and http://www.greendept.com:80 are equivalent. The default port number for secure HTTP (HTTPS) is 443. However, ColdFusion's built-in Web server listens on port 8500 by default. Thus, for example, these are two equivalent URLs for accessing the ColdFusion Administrator on the built-in Web server: http://127.0.0.1:8500/CFIDE/administrator/index.cfm http://localhost:8500/CFIDE/administrator/index.cfm
