SSL overview

SSL is an advanced feature that is available on ProLiant ML150 G2 and ProLiant ML110 G3 servers by installing the Lights-Out 100 Remote Management Card, or on ProLiant DL140 G2 servers and ProLiant DL145 G2 servers by purchasing the Lights-Out 100i Select Pack or the Lights-Out 100i Advanced Pack.

SSL is a protocol used to transmit private documents through the Internet. SSL uses a private key or certificate to encrypt data transferred over the SSL connection. The Lights-Out 100 remote management processor provides strong security for remote management in distributed IT environments by using 128-bit SSL encryption of HTTP data transmitted across the network. SSL encryption ensures that the HTTP information is secure as it travels across the network.

LO100 comes preinstalled with a certificate. To install a user-specific certificate, see the one-time "Importing a certificate (on page 21)" setup procedure.

If you cannot access the login page, you must verify the SSL encryption level of your browser is set to 128 bits. The SSL encryption level within the management processor is set to 128 bits and cannot be changed. The browser and management processor encryption levels must be the same.

To use the preinstalled certificate, enter https://ipaddress in the address line of the browser, which uses SSL-encrypted communication. Enter http://ipaddress to use non-SSL encrypted communication.
