       - `OJSI-113 <https://jira.onap.org/browse/OJSI-113>`_ - appc exposes plain text HTTP endpoint using port 30230
       - `OJSI-146 <https://jira.onap.org/browse/OJSI-146>`_ - appc-cdt exposes plain text HTTP endpoint using port 30289
       - `OJSI-185 <https://jira.onap.org/browse/OJSI-185>`_ - appc exposes ssh service on port 30231
