Secure HTTP Configuration
Secure HTTP enables the transmission of HTTP over an encrypted Secure Sockets Layer (SSL) or
Transport Layer Security (TLS) connection. When you manage the switch by using a Web
interface, secure HTTP can help ensure that communication between the management system and
the switch is protected from eavesdroppers and man-in-the-middle attacks.
Use the Secure HTTP Configuration page to configure the settings for HTTPS communication
between the management station and the switch.
To display the Secure HTTP Configuration page:
1. Click Security > Access, and then click the HTTPS > HTTPS Configuration link.
