Enabling SSL
SSL (Secure Sockets Layer) is a protocol that provides security and
privacy over the Internet by negotiating encryption keys before
transmitting data between a client and a server.
To establish a secure connection, the DXi4701 must have an encryption
key assigned to it by a Certification Authority in the form of a certificate
file, private key file, and pass phrase. After you install these
components, you can establish a secure connection using the SSL
protocol. The DXi4701 comes with a Quantum default SSL certificate.
To enable or disable SSL:
1 Under SSL Properties , select the Enable SSL option to enable SSL.
Or select the Disable SSL option to disable SSL.
