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 s ecurity protocols to use for
the connection.
- The client and server generate session keys for enc rypting and
decrypting data.
