Secure Access
You can optionally browse to the router using Secure Sockets Layer (SSL). This
means that sensitive data including passwords and email addresses can not be
accessed by malicious parties. This section details the required configuration.
For information about SSL, refer to the Secure Sockets Layer (SSL) chapter of
your Software Reference.
For this configuration to succeed your router must have PKI, ISAKMP, SSH and SSL
feature licences. If these licences are not already present on your router, please contact
your authorised distributor or reseller.
