• Session Timeout—The maximum amount of time, in minutes, an inactive
user remains logged on to the WAP device configuration utility. When the
configured timeout is reached, the user is automatically logged off. The
range is from 1 to 60 minutes. The default is 10 minutes.
STEP 3 Configure HTTP and HTTPS services:
• HTTP Server—Enables access through HTTP. By default, HTTP access is
enabled. If you disable it, any current connections using that protocol are
disconnected.
• HTTP Port—The logical port number to use for HTTP connections, from
1025 to 65535. The default port number for HTTP connections is the well-
known IANA port number 80.
• HTTPS Server—Enables access through secure HTTP. By default, HTTPS
access is enabled. If you disable it, any current connections using that
protocol are disconnected.
• HTTPS Port—The logical port number to use for HTTP connections, from
1025 to 65535. The default port number for HTTP connections is the well-
known IANA port number 443.
• Redirect HTTP to HTTPS—Redirects management HTTP access attempts
on the HTTP port to the HTTPS port. This field is available only when HTTP
access is disabled.
STEP 4 Click Save. The changes are saved to the Startup Configuration.
Managing SSL Certificates
To use HTTPS services, the WAP device must have a valid SSL certificate. The
WAP device can generate a certificate or you can download it from your network
or from a TFTP server.
To generate the certificate with the WAP device, click Generate SSL Certificate.
This should be done after the WAP device has acquired an IP address to ensure
that the common name for the certificate matches the IP address of the WAP
device. Generating a new SSL certificate restarts the secure web server. The
secure connection does not work until the new certificate is accepted on the
browser.
In the Certificate File Status area, you can view whether a certificate currently
exists on the WAP device, and view this information about it:
