Configure the HTTPS access settings
Secure HTTP (HTTPS) enables the transmission of HTTP over an encrypted Secure
Sockets Layer (SSL) or Transport Layer Security (TLS) connection. When you manage
the switch over the device UI, HTTPS can help ensure that communication between the
management system and the switch is protected from eavesdroppers and
man-in-the-middle attacks.
To configure the HTTPS access settings:
1. Launch a web browser.
2. In the address field of your web browser, enter the IP address of the switch.
The login page displays.
3. Click the Main UI Login button.
The main UI login page displays in a new tab.
4. Enter admin as the user name, enter your local device password, and click the Login
button.
The first time that you log in, no password is required. However, you then must
specify a local device password to use each subsequent time that you log in.
The System Information page displays.
5. Select Security > Access > HTTPS > HTTPS Configuration.
The HTTPS Configuration page displays.
6. Select the Admin Mode Disable or Enable radio button:
• Disable: You cannot access the switch device UI from an HTTPS session over a
web browser.
Note: You can download SSL certificates only when HTTPS is disabled.
• Enable: You can access the switch device UI from an HTTPS session over a web
browser. This is the default setting.
The Operational Status field shows if HTTPS is operationally enabled or disabled.
For example, if all certificates expire, HTTPS is operationally disabled.
The TLS Version field shows the TLS version, which is always 1.2.
7. In the HTTPS Port field, specify the HTTPS port number.
The valid range is from 1025 to 65535. The default port number is 443.
8. In the HTTPS Session Soft Timeout (Minutes) field, specify the number of minutes
an HTTPS session can be idle before a time-out occurs.
