Parameter Description
Configuration
SSL Status
Use the pull down menu to enable or disable the SSL status on the switch. The default is
Disabled.
Cache Timeout (60-
86400)
This field will set the time between a new key exchange between a client and a host using
the SSL function. A new SSL session is established every time the client and host go
through a key exchange. Specifying a longer timeout will allow the SSL session to reuse the
master key on future connections with that particular host, therefore speeding up the
negotiation process. The default setting is 600 seconds.
