Securing HTTP Communication with Encryption

Installation Overview

Use the following steps to secure HTTP communication with encryption.

Configuration of the Machine

Use CentreWare Internet Services to register a certificate into the machine. By
factory default, no certificate is registered in the machine. If necessary, register an
SSL server certificate.

There are the following two methods to register a certificate in the machine:

– Creating a self-signed certificate for the machine, and then enabling HTTPS

– Enabling HTTPS, and then importing an existing certificate into the machine

For the detailed settings, refer to the following section.
