Command Usage

Both HTTP and HTTPS service can be enabled independently on the switch. However, you cannot configure the HTTP and HTTPS servers to use the same UDP port.

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 and Netscape Navigator 4.x or later versions.

The following Web browsers and operating systems currently support HTTPS:

Web Browser

Operating System

Internet Explorer 5.0 or later

Windows 98,Windows NT (with service pack 6a),

 

Windows 2000, Windows XP

Netscape Navigator 4.76 or later

Windows 98,Windows NT (with service pack 6a),

 

Windows 2000, Windows XP, Solaris 2.6

To specify a secure-site certificate, see “Replacing the Default Secure-site Certificate” on page 3-29.Also refer to the copy command on page 4-55.
