Web Configuration & Operation 

 

Note: 

Methods that involve remote servers will time out if the remote servers are offline. In this case the next method is 

tried. Each method is tried from left to right and  continues until a method either approves or rejects a user. If a remote 
server  is  used  for  primary  authentication  it  is  recommended  to  configure  secondary  authentication  as  'local'.  This  will 
enable  the management client  to login  via  the local user database if none of the configured authentication servers  are 
alive.

 

 

Fallback:

 Enable fallback to local authentication by checking this box. If none of the configured authentication servers are 

alive, the local user database is used for authentication. This function is only available when “Radius” or “” option 
is selected in authentication method field. 
 

 

4.6.1.4 SSH 

Configure SSH on this page. 

 

 

 

Mode:

  Indicates the SSH mode operation. Possible modes are: 

 

Enabled: 

Enable SSH mode operation. By default, it is enabled. 

 

Disabled:

 Disable SSH mode operation. 

 

Note: 

SSH is preferred to Telnet, unless the management network is trusted. Telnet passes authentication credentials in 

plain text, making those credentials susceptible to packet capture and analysis. SSH provides a secure authentication 
method. The SSH in this device uses version 2 of SSH protocol.

 

 
 

4.6.1.5 HTTPS 

Configure HTTPS on this page. 
 

 

 

HTTPS Configuration 

 

Mode:  

Indicates the HTTPS operation mode. When the current connection is HTTPS and HTTPS mode operation is 

disabled, web browser will automatically redirect to an HTTP connection. Possible modes are: 
 

Enabled:

 Enable HTTPS mode operation. 

 

Disabled: 

Disable HTTPS mode operation.
