Command Syntax and Usage
access
Enables or disables BBI access (Web access) using HTTPS.
port <TCP port number>
Defines the HTTPS Web server port number.
generate
Allows you to generate a certificate to connect to the SSL to be used during the key exchange. A
default certificate is created when HTTPS is enabled for the first time. The user can create a new
certificate defining the information that they want to be used in the various fields. For example:
Country Name (2 letter code) [ ]: CA
State or Province Name (full name) []: Ontario
Locality Name (for example, city) []: Ottawa
Organization Name (for example, company) []: Blade
Organizational Unit Name (for example, section) []: Alteon
Common Name (for example, user’s name) []: Mr Smith
Email (for example, email address) []: info@bladenetwork.net
You will be asked to confirm if you want to generate the certificate. It will take approximately 30
seconds to generate the certificate. Then the switch will restart SSL agent.
certSave
Allows the client, or the Web browser, to accept the certificate and save the certificate to Flash to
be used when the switch is rebooted.
cur
Displays the current SSL Web Access configuration.
