There is no Firewall on the Orion host it is disabled. I have tried https://localhost:8787/Orion as well as http://localhost:8787/Orion with no luck as well as just using host. As I mentioned before I have removed the port 80 binding from IIS so Orion can only be accessed via the 443 port https. I have ran netstat as I was trying to connect Alert Central to Orion and I see that my Orion server has a connection from 17778 to the Alert Central server but it still doesn't allow me to connect.
I have ensure those additional lines are in the config file however it needs to be noted that this environment has no access to the outside world. So if those commands are trying to reach back to solarwinds its not going to work.
