Ssl Certificate File Status - Cisco WAP581 Administration Manual

SSL Certificate File Status

• HTTP Port — Enter the logical port number to use for the HTTP connections, from 1025 to 65535. The default
port number for the HTTP connections is the well-known IANA port number 80.
• Redirect HTTP to HTTPS — Redirects management HTTP access attempts on the HTTP port to the HTTPS
port. This field is available only when HTTP access is disabled.
• HTTPS Service — Enable or disable access through secure HTTP (HTTPS). By default, HTTPS access is enabled.
If you disable it, any current connections using that protocol are disconnected.
• HTTPS Port — Enter the logical port number to use for the HTTPS connections, from 1025 to 65535. The
default port number for the HTTPS connections is the IANA port number 443.
• TLSv1.0, TLSv1.1, SSLv3 — Check or uncheck the checkbox to enable or disable the protocol of the HTTPS
Service.
• Management ACL Mode — If the Mode is enabled, access through the web and SNMP is restricted to the specified
IP hosts. You can configure up to 5 IPv4 and 5 IPv6 addresses under the Management Access Control. If this
feature is disabled, anyone can access the configuration utility from any network client by supplying the correct user
name and password of the WAP device.
Verify any IP address that you enter. If you enter an IP address that does not match your administrative
Note
computer, you will lose access to the configuration interface. We recommend that you give the administrative
computer a static IP address, so the address does not change over time.

SSL Certificate File Status
To use the HTTPS services, the WAP device must have a valid SSL certificate. The WAP device can generate
a certificate, or you can download it from your network or from a TFTP server.
In the Generate SSL Certificate area, click SSL Settings, then click Generate to generate the certificate for
the WAP device. This procedure should be done after the WAP device has acquired an IP address to ensure
that the common name for the certificate matches the IP address of the WAP device. Generating a new SSL
certificate restarts the secure web server. The secure connection does not work until the new certificate is
accepted on the browser.
In the SSL Certificate File Status area, you can view the current certificate on the WAP device. The following
will be displayed:
• Certificate File Present
• Certificate Expiration Date
• Certificate Issuer Common Name
If a SSL certificate (with a .pem extension) exists on the WAP device, you can download it to your computer
as a backup. In the Transfer SSL Certificate from (Device to PC) area, select HTTP/HTTPS or TFTP as
the download option and click Transfer.
• If you select HTTP/HTTPS, confirm the download and then browse to the location to save the file on
