Chapter 12 – Device Administration
Configuring Device Access
This section contains configurations that determine how the device can be accessed as well as security features
that decrease susceptibility to malicious activity.
To display the Access Configuration window containing the fields described below, go to Administration > Access
Configuration.
HTTP Redirect to HTTPS
The device allows only secure access to its Web UI. This set of rules provides the optional convenience of
automatically redirecting HTTP requests to the device's secure HTTPS port.
The device can be configured to allow HTTP access to its RESTFUL JSON API. Embedded devices that do not have
SSL/TLS or HTTPS capabilities can then configure, monitor, and control the device.
See the MTR API Developer Guide for more information.

redirects users trying to access the device via HTTP to
HTTPS.

requests from the LAN.
Via WAN/Cellular If checked, the device listens and responds to HTTP
requests from the WAN.

Field Description
