4	<url-pattern>/*</url-pattern>
5	</web-resource-collection>
6	<user-data-constraint>
7	<transport-guarantee>CONFIDENTIAL</transport-guarantee>
8	</user-data-constraint>
9	</security-constraint>

　　Save and quit.
　　Step5: Testing
　　Startup Tomcat server.
　　If everything is fine, you should able to access https://localhost or http://localhost.
　　Additionally, may be you have to add following attribute to the <connector> definition.
　　protocol="org.apache.coyote.http11.Http11Protocol"
