Description
Give this controller a label or nickname to identify it on the network. The hostname can be used in place of an IP address to
identify this controller on the network. This hostname can be used in a Web browser's address.
Hostname
A hostname may contain only the ASCII letters 'a' through 'z' (case-insensitive), the digits '0' through '9', and the hyphen ('-').
A hostname cannot start with a hyphen and must not end with a hyphen. No other symbols, punctuation characters, or white
space are permitted.
Set this to enable the standard Webserver on this controller.
HTTP
When Single Sign On (SSO) is enabled, HTTP is not available.

Certificate Mode
For HTTPS connections, a certificate must have the controller's current URL or IP address encoded into it to show to the

connecting device that the connection corresponds to the certificate. Set the controller's current IP address, hostname, or
DNS name.
For HTTPS connections, click to export the public key from the local authority that generates the internal certificate to a file
Export Authority
on your PC. You must import this certificate into all PCs that are going to connect to this controller as a trusted certificate.
