Remarks
Configure the policy to use a
hardware encryption card for SSL
encryption and decryption
crypto-accelerator encrypt
interface-number
Optional
By default, a policy uses software
for encryption and decryption.
NOTE:
•
If you enable client authentication here, you must request a local certificate for the client.
•
Currently, SSL mainly comes in these versions: SSL 2.0, SSL 3.0, and TLS 1.0, where TLS 1.0 corresponds
to SSL 3.1. When the device acts as an SSL server, it can communicate with clients running SSL 3.0 or TLS
1.0, and can identify Hello packets from clients running SSL 2.0. If a client running SSL 2.0 also supports
SSL 3.0 or TLS 1.0 (information about supported versions is carried in the packet that the client sends to
the server), the server will notify the client to use SSL 3.0 or TLS 1.0 to communicate with the server.
SSL Server Policy Configuration Example
Network requirements
As shown in
, users can access and control Device through Web pages. For security of the device,
it is required that users use HTTPS (HTTP Security, which uses SSL) to log in to the Web interface of the
device and use SSL for identity authentication to ensure that data will not be eavesdropped or tampered
with.
To achieve the goal, perform the following configurations:
•
Configure Device to work as the HTTPS server and request a certificate for Device.
•
Request a certificate for Host so that Device can authenticate the identity of Host.
•
Configure a CA server to issue certificates to Device and Host.
NOTE:
•
In this example, Windows Server works as the CA server and the Simple Certificate Enrollment Protocol
(SCEP) plug-in is installed on the CA server.
•
Before performing the following configurations, ensure that Device, Host, and the CA server can reach
each other.
