At the moment it is unused by default but the port suggested for HTTPS for the HTTP Management interface is 9443, where users are using multiples of 100 for port offsets they are hitting a conflict with 8443. Any objections to changing this port to 9993 for WildFly 8? https://issues.jboss.org/browse/WFLY-1669 Regards, Darran Lofthouse.
