7.7.2. HTTP & TLS
7.7.2.1. HTTPS
HTTP transports data on a clear channel, readable by any other device on the network. The
DCBM supports TLS, for HTTPS communication. Enabling it creates an encrypted channel for
communications, which prevents undesired listening. It also authenticates the DCBM based on its
certificate.
The HTTPS certificate is available through the
/certificate
API. This API is read-only. It is
described in Communication Protocols manual.
HTTPS can be enabled for the DCBM through field
http/tls_on
in
/settings
API.
7.7.2.2. HTTP port
The DCBM allows configuration of its HTTP port to use. Port can be set using
http/httpPort
in
/settings
API.
i
Default port numbers as defined by IANA are:
• 80 for HTTP
• 443 for HTTPS
!
Enabling HTTPS does not automatically change the port to use. Do not forget to set it to 443 if
needed.
