If you enable HTTPS, you must indicate this in the URL that you specify in your browser:
https://device[:port_number]
• When you start HTTPS, the connection is established in this way:
• The client authenticates the server using the server’s digital certificate.
• The client and server negotiate a set of security protocols to use for the connection.
• The client and server generate session keys for encrypting and decrypting data.
The client and server establish a secure encrypted connection.
A padlock icon should appear in the status bar for Internet Explorer 5.x or above and Netscape Navigator
