HTTPS
This is disabled by default. You cannot enable it until you have
created a certificate.
If you create an HTTPS certificate, click Save to preserve your work.
We recommend that you create a certificate using the local interface,
or using the web interface from within your network (rather than
remotely) so that you do not risk locking yourself out of the system!
To create a certificate, first forward the HTTPS port (default 443) on
your router.
Next, decide whether you want to do a self-signed certificate or file a
certificate request, and click the appropriate button.
Self-signed Certificate
This feature has been disabled.
Certificate Request
Fill out the required data for the security certificate. This includes
the standard two-letter Internet code for your country (use US for
the United States, and CA for Canada). Click
OK when finished.
Then you have to send it off to your certificate authority. Click
Download
to save the certificate request to your machine, then
email the file to your preferred certificate authority.
If you cannot find your saved certificate request, this means that
some system setting is preventing you from viewing it. Try saving
the certificate request file to a flash drive or other external media.
Alternatively, save another copy of the request, but, before you save
it, locate the older request on your system (it should be visible) and
open it by right-clicking on the file from with the save-file dialog.
Either of these solutions should solve the problem.
Once you have your certificate, you can click Enable HTTPS to
begin using it.
