access
To activate changes to any of these selections, log off from the Rack PDU:
•
Disable
: Disables access to the Web interface. (To re-enable access, log in to the
command line interface, then type the command
http -S enable
. For
HTTPS access, type
https -S enable
.)
•
Enable HTTP
(the default): Enables Hypertext Transfer Protocol (HTTP), which
provides Web access by user name and password, but does not encrypt user
names, passwords, and data during transmission.
•
Enable HTTPS
: Enables Hypertext Transfer Protocol (HTTPS) over Secure
Sockets Layer (SSL). SSL encrypts user names, passwords, and data during
transmission, and authenticates the Rack PDU by digital certificate. When HTTPS
is enabled, your browser displays a small lock icon.
See “Creating and Installing Digital Certificates” in
to choose among the several methods for using digital certificates.
HTTP Port
: The TCP/IP port (80 by default) used to communicate by HTTP with the
Rack PDU.
HTTPS Port
: The TCP/IP port (443 by default) used to communicate by HTTPS
with the Rack PDU.
For either of these ports, you can change the port setting to any unused port from
5000 to 32768 for additional security. Users must then use a colon (:) in the address
field of the browser to specify the port number. For example, for a port number of
5000 and an IP address of 152.214.12.114:
http://152.214.12.114:5000
https://152.214.12.114:5000
