Secure HTTP
68
You can use the HTTPS protocol to increase security between the base unit
and a Web browser communicating with it. To do this, you create a server
certificate, install it on the base unit, and turn on the Secure HTTP setting in
the base unit menus to verify the reliability of the Web browser.
s
Network > Network Settings > Base Unit Control > Secure HTTP
Even if you do not install a server certificate, the base unit automatically
creates a self-signed certificate and allows communication. However, because
the self-signed certificate cannot verify reliability from a Web browser, you
see a warning about the server's reliability when you access the base unit from
a Web browser. This warning does not prevent communication.
