The Web Server screen, shown in Figure 166, is used to set the HTTPS server parameter On or Off. This parameter
may only be set from the front panel of the receiver. The current setting is displayed with the Ethernet parameters on
the System Information window and is accessed via the About screen in the Browser Interface.
Note: When turning HTTPS On or Off, the web server must restart and may take up to one (1) minute to accept
connections from a web browser.
HTTPS is a widely-used secure communication extension to HTTP that uses Transport Layer Security (TLS) to
encrypt all communications between the client and server. It also enables authentication of the accessed website via
a system of verified and trusted certificates. Enabling HTTPS on the RDMS ensures that the connection is being
made to an authentic RDMS, and that all communications between the web browser and RDMS are secure.

prior to making an HTTPS connection to the RDMS. If a connection is made without importing the certificate, the
user could see one of the following security/privacy errors from the browser:
