Changing the BlackArmor Server’s Advanced Settings
You add SSL support to your BlackArmor server by entering an SSL certificate and key pair.
Uninterruptible Power Supply (UPS) Settings
An uninterruptible power supply is a power supply that has a battery in it that maintains power to
a computer or server in the event of a power failure.
A UPS is intended to provide enough power for you to save whatever files you’re working on and
properly power off the computer or server; it’s not meant to keep any system running for the
duration of a power failure.
You can connect your BlackArmor server to a UPS and customize the UPS settings in BlackAr-
mor Manager. You can specify when you want the UPS to power off the BlackArmor server if you
are not present at the time. You can choose to have the server shut down when:
• The battery life of the UPS reaches 15% of full power or the battery has five minutes of
life left, or less.
Or,
• A specified amount of time has passed since the power failure began. (You can specify
the amount of time.)
Web Access Protocol Settings
By default, your BlackArmor server is set to the HTTP Web access protocol. HTTP stands for
Hypertext Transfer Protocol and is the most common way that data and files are stored on the
Internet.
You can set your BlackArmor server to use HTTPS (HTTP over Secure Socket Layer) if you have
set SSL on the server. (See “Secure Socket Layer (SSL) Settings” on page 42.)
Workgroup and Domain Settings
By default, your BlackArmor server is set as a workgroup. A workgroup is a number of computers
on a network that share resources. You can add any computer to the server’s workgroup, or you
can add the server to an existing workgroup.
Alternatively, you can set your BlackArmor server as a domain member. A domain is a group of
computers administered as a single unit from a central location. You must know the domain
administrator’s user name and password to add your server to a domain.
