Select System: Services. Then select /deselect the service to be enabled /disabled. The following
access protocol options are available:
HTTPS Ensures secure browser access to all the Management Console menus. It also allows
appropriately configured Users secure browser access to selected Management
Console Manage menus. If HTTPS is enabled, the Administrator will be able to use a
secure browser connection to the Console Server’s Management Console. For
information on certificate and user/client software configuration, refer to Chapter 9 -
Authentication. By default, HTTPS is enabled, and it is recommended that only HTTPS
access be used if the Console Server is to be managed over any public network (e.g.
the Internet).
HTTP Allows the Administrator basic browser access to the Management Console. It is
recommended that you disable the HTTP service if the Console Server is to be
remotely accessed over the Internet.
Telnet Gives the Administrator Telnet access to the system command line shell (Linux
commands). While this may be suitable for a local direct connection over a
management LAN, it is recommended this service be disabled if the Console Server is
to be remotely administered.
SSH Provides secure SSH access to the Linux command line shell. It is recommended you
choose SSH as the protocol when the Administrator is connecting to the Console
Server over the Internet or over any other public network. This will provide
authenticated communications between the SSH client program on the remote
Computer and the SSH sever in the Console Server. For more information on SSH
configuration, refer to Chapter 9 - Authentication.
