Configuration

This screen will allow the user to enable SSL on the Switch and implement any one or combination of listed ciphersuites on the
Switch. A ciphersuite is a security string that determines the exact cryptographic parameters, specific encryption algorithms and
key sizes to be used for an authentication session. The Switch possesses four possible ciphersuites for the SSL function, which are
all enabled by default. To utilize a particular ciphersuite, disable the unwanted ciphersuites, leaving the desired one for
authentication.
When the SSL function has been enabled, the web will become disabled. To manage the Switch through the web based
management while utilizing the SSL function, the web browser must support SSL encryption and the header of the URL must
begin with https://. (Ex. https://10.90.90.90) Any other method will result in an error and no access can be authorized for the web-
based management.
