Chapter 6. Administration of the Telecommuting Module

Conﬁguration via HTTP

Select which IP address and port the Telecommuting Module administrator should direct her web browser to when HTTP is used for Telecommuting Module conﬁguration. You can select from the Telecommuting Module IP addresses conﬁgured on the Interface pages under Network Conﬁguration.

You can use different IP addresses for HTTP, HTTPS, and SSH conﬁguration.

Conﬁguration via HTTPS

Select which IP address and port the Telecommuting Module administrator should direct her web browser to when HTTPS is used for Telecommuting Module conﬁguration. You can select from the Telecommuting Module IP addresses conﬁgured on the Interface pages under Network Conﬁguration.

You can use different IP addresses for HTTP, HTTPS, and SSH conﬁguration.

You also need to select an X.509 certiﬁcate, which works as an ID card, identifying the Telecommuting Module to your web browser. This will ensure that you are really commu- nicating with your Telecommuting Module and not somebody else’s computer. HTTPS uses an encryption method using two keys, one secret and one public. The secret key is kept in the Telecommuting Module and the public key is used in the certiﬁcate. If any of the keys is changed, the HTTPS connection won’t work.

All local certiﬁcates for the Telecommuting Module are created on the Certiﬁcates page under Basic Conﬁguration.

Conﬁguration via SSH

Select which IP address and port the Telecommuting Module administrator should direct her ssh client to when SSH is used for Telecommuting Module conﬁguration. You can se- lect from the Telecommuting Module IP addresses conﬁgured on the Interface pages under Network Conﬁguration.

For SSH conﬁguration, the Command Language Interface is used. See also chapter 18 of the Reference Guide.

You can use different IP addresses for HTTP, HTTPS, and SSH conﬁguration.
