here's the command line way:
splunk enable web-ssl
splunk set web-port 443
splunk restart
(assuming you're using the built in ssl keys)

Hi,

You should look the following documentation...

For enabling HTTPS:

http://docs.splunk.com/Documentation/Splunk/latest/Security/TurnonbasicencryptionwithSplunkWeb

For changing default port:

http://docs.splunk.com/Documentation/Splunk/5.0.2/Admin/Changedefaultvalues#Change_network_ports

Pretty self-explanatory.

Hope this helps.
