5: Advanced Configuration

Disabling HTTP to Use Only HTTPS

The BladeManager is configured to allow both HTTP and HTTPS access. You can, however disable HTTP access by commenting out its configuration in the BladeManager unit by using the command line. To do so, perform the following steps:

1.Edit the file: /opt/tomcat/conf/server.xml

2.Using the exclamation mark (!) and the double dash (--), comment out the following XML paragraph:

<!-- Define a non-SSL Coyote HTTP/1.1 Connector on port 8080 -->

<!-- Connector className="org.apache.coyote.tomcat4.CoyoteConnector" port="80" minProcessors="5" maxProcessors="75" enableLookups="true" redirectPort="443" acceptCount="100" debug="0" connectionTimeout="20000" useURIValidationHack="false" disableUploadTimeout="true" /-->

3.Restart the web server using the following command:

/etc/init.d/tomcat stop /etc/init.d/tomcat start

Firmware

Adding Firmware

Firmware files (.tgz) are normally downloaded from the web and copied into the E2000 using Secure Copy (SCP). To add or import new firmware, follow this procedure:

1.From the web (www.cyclades.com), download the firmware to your computer.

2.Using the CLI, use the SSH scp command to copy the firmware to E2000. Example: scp v214.tgz root@<ip_address>:/usr/fw

3.Open the Firmware List form and click the Import button.

The system should add the new firmware on the Firmware List form. The system also updates the Firmware/Boot drop down list in the Device Definition form.
