SSL Settings
The AT-GS950/16PS switch has a web browser server for remote
management of the unit with a web browser application from management
workstations on your network. By default, the server operates in a
non-secure HTTP mode and can be configured to communicate in a
secure HTTPS mode with SSL protocol.
In many situations, the communication with the switch will be in a
controlled environment and it is acceptable to communicate with the
management software in the HTTP mode.
However, you may find that your management communications are
subject to outside security risks and web sessions conducted in the non-
secure HTTP mode are vulnerable to security issues because the packets
are sent in clear text. Web browser management sessions that use the
secure HTTPS mode with SSL protocol are protected against snooping
because the packets exchanged between the switch and your
management workstations are encrypted. When operating in this mode,
only the AT-GS950/16PS switch and the web browser are able to decipher
the packets sent and received between them.
