HTTPS is a protocol that provides encryption for page requests from users and for the pages returned by the web server. The
encrypted exchange of information is governed by the use of an HTTPS certificate, which guarantees the authenticity of the server.
To use HTTPS on the device, you must install an HTTPS certificate. Go to
System > Security
to create and install certificates.
Note
If you view encrypted web pages through HTTPS, you might experience a drop in performance, especially when you
request a page for the first time.

administrator, you can also enter any port in the range 1-1023. If you use a port in this range, you get a warning.
HTTPS port
: Enter the HTTPS port to use. Port 443 or any port in the range 1024-65535 are allowed. If you are logged in as an

Authentication method
:
•
Basic
: This method is the most compatible authentication scheme for HTTP. It’s less secure than the
Digest
method
because it sends the username and password unencrypted to the server.
•
Digest
: This method is more secure because it always transfers the password encrypted across the network.
•
Auto
: This option lets the device select the authentication method depending on the supported methods. It prioritizes
the
Digest
method over the
Basic
method.
Owner authentication key (OAK)
: Click
