Description

Hi,

If I use secure-port in my configuration and I don't specify the management.port, then spring cloud does not change my eureka statusPageUrl and other url's to https.
The if condition at line number 114 in EurekaClientAutConfiguraiton.java (spring-cloud-netflix-eureka-client: 1.2.6 release) prevents it from changing the scheme and it lets netflix configure the url . In netflix's InstanceInfo.java there is no check for secure port and the protocol is hardcoded to http.

I am not sure where to raise this issue, but since I am using spring-cloud-netflix I am putting this here

Research direction
Examine the condition at line 114 in EurekaClientAutoConfiguration.java that prevents updating the statusPageUrl scheme to HTTPS when secure port is set but management.port is not specified. Also review InstanceInfo.java from Netflix's Eureka client where the protocol is hardcoded to http. Consider modifying the condition to check for secure port presence, or change the default behavior to respect secure port. Test with secure port configuration and verify that status and health URLs use HTTPS.
