Once any of the server port settings have been modified, press the Accept button to save these changes to the Master.

Once these changes are saved, the following message appears: "Unit must be rebooted for the change to take effect".

Click the Reboot button (from the top of the page) to remotely reboot the target Master. No dialog appears while using

this button. The Device Tree then reads "Rebooting....". After a few seconds, the Device Tree refreshes with the current

system information (indicating updated port numbers).

Note: If the Device Tree contents do not refresh within a few minutes, press the browser’s Refresh button and reconnect

to the Master.

SSL Certificate Options

There are three SSL Certificate options, presented as links along the bottom of this page:

Server Port Settings (Cont.)

Feature Description

SSH: • The port value used for secure Telnet communication. A separate secure SSH Client would handle

communication over this port. When using a secure SSH login, the entire login session (including the

transmission of passwords) is encrypted; therefore it is secure method of preventing an external user

from collecting passwords.

• SSH version 2 is supported.

• The default port value is 22.

Note: If this port’s value is changed, make sure to use it within the Address field of the SSH Client

application.

FTP: The default port value used for FTP communication = 21.

Note: This port can be disabled/enabled but the value can not be changed.

SSL Certificate Options

Create SSL Certificate: Opens the Create SSL Certificate window where you can create a self-generated SSL

certificate.

Note: A self-generated certificate has lower security than an external CA (officially

issued) generated certificate.

Export SSL Certificate Request: Takes the user to the Server Certificate page where they can view a previously created

certificate.

An authorized user can also copy the raw text from a generated Certificate request into

their clipboard and then send it to the CA.

Import SSL Certificate: Takes the user to the Import Certificate page where they can import and paste the raw

text from a CA issued Certificate.
