Chapter 9 HTTP and HTTPS Commands
With the help of HTTP (HyperText Transfer Protocol) or HTTPS (Hyper Text Transfer Protocol
over Secure Socket Layer), you can manage the switch through a standard browser.
HTTP is the protocol to exchange or transfer hypertext.
SSL (Secure Sockets Layer), a security protocol, is to provide a secure connection for the
application layer protocol (e.g. HTTP) based on TCP. Adopting asymmetrical encryption
technology, SSL uses key pair to encrypt/decrypt information. A key pair refers to a public key
(contained in the certificate) and its corresponding private key. By default, the switch has a
certificate (self-signed certificate) and a corresponding private key. The Certificate/Key
Download function enables the user to replace the default key pair.
