5.5 Configuring User Interface Security
Figure 21 Network Security Settings Page
This procedure configures HTTPS encryption for the user interface connection. By default,
DGA monitor only allows encrypted connections to the user interface (HTTPS) using a self-
signed certificate. Any connections that request unencrypted communication (HTTP) are
redirected to the encrypted interface (HTTPS).
The default self-signed certificate is not trusted by connecting web browsers, so
they will notify the user that the connection is not secure. To remove the
notification, you need to install a trusted TLS certificate (TLS 1.1 or 1.2) on the DGA
monitor. However, note that HTTPS traffic is always encrypted even if the cerficate
is not trusted. Vaisala recommends using encrypted connections (HTTPS).
1. In the user interface, select Settings > Network > Security.
