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 security protocols to use for the
connection.
■
The client and server generate session keys for encrypting and decrypting
data.
◆ The client and server establish a secure encrypted connection.
A padlock icon should appear in the status bar for Internet Explorer 6 or above,
and Mozilla Firefox 4 or above.
The following web browsers and operating systems currently support HTTPS:
◆ To specify a secure-site certificate, see “Replacing the Default Secure-site
Certificate” in the Web Management Guide. Also refer to the copy tftp https-
certificate command.
◆ Connection to the web interface is not supported for HTTPS using an IPv6 link
local address.
