Tip!
Proxy servers using SSL/TLS-interception require a specific rule in order to allow
transparent communication (Franking System via F-Link to FramaOnline) via https port
443.
The specific rule grants correct identification of FramaOnline2 (https certificate) for the
F-Link.
Note!
Configuration in environment with “open access points”
To prevent an automatic connection with open access points dismount the WI-FI an-
tenna until the F-Link has been set to WI-FI function.
Note!
During first connection to the Frama FO2 backend system, the F-Link will be config-
ured (e.g. country code, language, time …) automatically. Thus the very first connec-
tion takes longer time than subsequent ones.
