Configuring Security

From the Sessions window you can specify different levels of encryption.
Changing these settings will increase the level of security for the SwitchView
IP. You can restrict access to the SwitchView IP Web Server by selecting SSL
connections only
. After selecting the SSL connections only option, you are
prompted to log in again under the secure address.

NOTE: When you specify either encryption Level 1 or encryption Level 2, the SwitchView IP Web
Server is automatically set to SSL connections only. If you want to disable the SSL connections
only
setting, you will need to change the remote session encryption back to Level Ш.
