Warning

The IP-KVM switch has its own independent real time clock. Make sure
the time setting of the IP-KVM switch is correct. (see the Section called
Date And Time )


6.6.3 Security

Figure 6-27. Device Security

Force HTTPS

If this option is enabled access to the web front-end is only possible using an
HTTPS connection. The IP-KVM switch will not listen on the HTTP port for
incoming connections.

In case you want to create your own SSL certificate that is used to identify the
IP-KVM switch refer to the Section called Certificate.

KVM encryption

This option controls the encryption of the RFB protocol. RFB is used by the
Remote Console to transmit both the screen data to the administrator machine
and keyboard and mouse data back to the host. If set to “Off” no encryption will
be used. If set to ”Try” the applet tries to make an encrypted connection. In
case connection establishment fails for any reason an unencrypted connection
will be used.

If set to “Force” the applet tries to make an encrypted connection with
certificate. An error will be reported in case connection establishment fails.
