SSL overview
SSL is an advanced feature that is available on ProLiant ML150 G2 and ProLiant ML110 G3 servers by
installing the Lights-Out 100 Remote Management Card, or on ProLiant DL140 G2 servers and ProLiant
DL145 G2 servers by purchasing the Lights-Out 100i Select Pack or the Lights-Out 100i Advanced Pack.
SSL is a protocol used to transmit private documents through the Internet. SSL uses a private key or
certificate to encrypt data transferred over the SSL connection. The Lights-Out 100 remote management
processor provides strong security for remote management in distributed IT environments by using 128-bit
SSL encryption of HTTP data transmitted across the network. SSL encryption ensures that the HTTP
information is secure as it travels across the network.
LO100 comes preinstalled with a certificate. To install a user-specific certificate, see the one-time
"Importing a certificate (on page
21 )" setup procedure.
If you cannot access the login page, you must verify the SSL encryption level of your browser is set to 128
bits. The SSL encryption level within the management processor is set to 128 bits and cannot be changed.
The browser and management processor encryption levels must be the same.
To use the preinstalled certificate, enter
https://ipaddress
in the address line of the browser, which
uses SSL-encrypted communication. Enter
http://ipaddress
to use non-SSL encrypted communication.
