Item Description
Hostname
Give this controller a label or nickname to identify it on the network. The hostname can be used in place of an IP address to
identify this controller on the network. This hostname can be used in a Web browser’s address.
A hostname may contain only the ASCII letters 'a' through 'z' (case-insensitive), the digits '0' through '9', and the hyphen ('-').
A hostname cannot start with a hyphen and must not end with a hyphen. No other symbols, punctuation characters, or white
space are permitted.
HTTP
Set this to enable the standard Webserver on this controller.
When Single Sign On (SSO) is enabled, HTTP is not available.
See also FIPS 140-2 Mode.
HTTPS
Set this to enable the secure Webserver on this controller. Connections to this sever are encrypted which helps to prevent
eavesdropping thereby keeping passwords secure.
Security
TLS minimum Protocol Version:
– Select the appropriate Transport Layer Protocol (TLSv1+, TLSv1.1+, or TLSv1.2) minimum version to be used for
server authentication and secure encryption and decryption of data over the Internet.
Cipher Suite Compatibility Level:
– Legacy: This is the default value and is used only if you need to support outdated client and browser versions (e.g.,
Internet Explorer 6, Client in Java 6).
Recommended: This level provides a higher level of security but is only compatible with latest client and browser versions
(e.g., Firefox 27+, Chrome 30+, Client in Java 8).
Certificate Mode
Select the type of certificate (Internal or Custom) to be used by the ECLYPSE controller.
– Internal: Use a self-signed certificate that has been created automatically by the ECLYPSE controller.
– Custom: Use a custom certificate. In this case, the user must import the custom certificate into the ECLYPSE con-
troller.
Internal
Certificate

connecting device that the connection corresponds to the certificate. Set the controller’s current IP address, hostname, or
DNS name.
Export Authority

ter.
