Configuring the Web Server

This procedure explains how to enable and disable the web server and
how to configure the HTTP and HTTPS settings from a local or Telnet
management session. The default setting for the web server is enabled,
with the non-secure HTTP mode as the active web server mode.

Before configuring the web server, please note the following:

❑ You cannot make any changes to the HTTP or HTTPS settings

while the web server is enabled. You must first disable the server
before making changes.

❑ To configure the web server for the HTTPS secure mode, you must

first create an encryption key and a certificate, and add the
certificate to the certificate database. The management software
will not allow you to configure the web server for the HTTPS
secure mode until those steps have been completed. For
instructions, refer to Chapter 26, Encryption Keys on page 492 and
Chapter 27, Public Key Infrastructure Certificates on page 510.

❑ To make a change to an HTTP or HTTPS setting, you must perform

the entire procedure. For instance, to change the port number for
HTTP, you must first disable the web server and then reselect
HTTP.

To configure the web server, perform the following procedure:

1. From the Main Menu, type 5 to select System Administration.

2. From the System Administration menu, type 4 to select Web Server

Configuration.

The Web Server Configuration Menu is shown in Figure 163.
