Managing SSL (HTTPS)

SSL (secure socket layer) protocol provides a secure connection between Web clients and the Wireless LAN Solution Engine. When you initially set up the Wireless LAN Solution Engine, an unsigned certificate and a CSR (Certificate Signed Request) are automatically generated and SSL is enabled. The unsigned certificate expires in one year. To obtain a permanent, signed certificate, use the following procedure.

Note To establish a connection to the Wireless LAN Solution Engine using SSL, use the prefix https instead of http when entering the URL into the browser and do not append a port number to the URL.

Procedure

Step 1 Select Administration > Appliance > Security > SSL (HTTPS). The SSL

(HTTPS) dialog box appears.
