Hello!

My groups is using the _javascript_ NDT library to do browser-based speed tests. We need to require our website to use HTTPS, meaning that the _javascript_ NDT library must connect with WSS.

I believe the question I need answered is: Does the NDT server automatically bind a port to accept SSL connections, or is there some configuration I need to do? My instance of NDT doesn't seem to be binding port 3010.

When I look at the NDT test from M-Lab https://www.measurementlab.net/tools/ndt/, I see that it's using a WSS connection over port 3010. However, searching the NDT codebase, the only reference to a port 3010 is in the _javascript_ client. There's no mention of port 3010 in the docs or man pages. 

I'm running NDT 3.7.0.2 on a CentOS machine. I get NDT distributed through PerfSONAR, which might be preventing SSL connections. However, I wanted to ask this community, since there doesn't seem to be any explicit discussion on SSL vs non-SSL tests.

Thanks,
Brian Farrell
