Socket Layer (SSL) or Transport Layer Security (TLS). HTTPS technology ensures
end-to-end security and provides complete defense against eavesdropping,
impersonation, and hijacking. When you complete the HTTPS configuration, click

to save the settings; otherwise click

to discard the changes.
Create and Install a Certificate
The first step is to create a self-signed certificate:
STEP 1
Click Create next to
Self-Signed certificate
and the
Create Certificate
window
appears.
STEP 2
Fill in the required information and click Save to generate a self-signed certificate.
STEP 3
The certificate will be automatically installed upon generation, then you can
enable the HTTPS service (check
Enable HTTPS secure connection
).
Certificate Information
Once a certificate is present, you can press the
Property
button to view the
certificate details. After a certificate is installed or generated you cannot generate
a new one. The old certificate must be removed before a new certificate can be
generated. To remove the certificate, press the Remove button. The same rule
applies to certificate request. You need to remove an old certificate request
before generating a new one.
