3.7 How to Configure the AVP Using the Web GUI
The unit is configured using the web browser Graphical User Interface (GUI). For
details of all the GUI screens and options, see Chapter 5, Web GUI Control.
For details of supported web browsers please refer to the release notes
accompanying the software release.
3.7.1 General AVP Configuration
The configuration consists of two phases. First, the general parameters of the base
unit and the option cards are configured through the Device Configuration web
page. Then, the output streams can be configured through the Service
Configuration web page.
To save any changes made, click on the Apply All button located at the right side of
the user interface below the page tabs.
Note: To save time, save the changes only after each parameter has been
altered. When trying to leave a page without saving the changes, a dialog is
displayed which allows saving or discarding the changes or abandoning the
page.
The modified folders in the Advanced Video Processor Settings widget and the
corresponding parameters in the Properties widget are highlighted in orange.
Moreover, the changes are also listed on the Changes tab of the Information
widget. To undo a change, simply click on it in the Information widget. The
appropriate item shows up in the Properties widget and its original value can be
restored manually.
3.7.2 How to Enforce HTTPS
The AVP control interface can be used over HTTP or HTTPS protocols. The HTTPS
protocol is always available, and uses a self-signed certificate. It is not possible to
change this certificate.
HTTP is available by default, but an administrator of the unit can turn this off.
To turn off HTTP access:
1. Navigate to the Device Configuration > Advanced Setup page and select
Base Unit > Remote Authentication and HTTP server options.
2. Change the control Disable HTTP Access (HTTPS is always On) to ON in
order to disable HTTP access, thereby enforcing the use of HTTPS.
