Web/SSL
Use the Web/SSL menu to perform the following tasks.
• Enable or disable the two protocols that provide access to the Web
interface of the Automatic Transfer Switch:
– Hypertext Transfer Protocol (HTTP) provides access by user name
and password, but does not encrypt user names, passwords, and
data during transmission.
– Hypertext Transfer Protocol over Secure Sockets Layer (HTTPS)
encrypts user names, passwords, and data during transmission and
provides authentication of the Automatic Transfer Switch by means
of digital certificates.
• Configure the ports that each of the two protocols will use.
• Select the encryption ciphers that SSL will use.
See Creating and Installing Digital Certificates to choose among
the several methods for using digital certificates.
