Configuring Http Login - HP A-F1000-E Getting Started Manual

HTTP login—The Hypertext Transfer Protocol (HTTP) is used for transferring web page information
•
across the Internet. It is an application-layer protocol in the TCP/IP protocol suite. The
connection-oriented Transport Control Protocol (TCP) is adopted at the transport layer. Currently, the
device supports HTTP 1.0.
• HTTPS login—The Secure HTTP (HTTPS) refers to the HTTP protocol that supports the Security Socket
Layer (SSL) protocol. HTTPS uses SSL to encrypt the data exchanged between the HTTPS client and
the server to ensure data security and integrity. You can define a certificate attribute-based access
control policy to allow legal clients to access the device securely and prohibit illegal clients.
The following table shows the configuration requirements of web login.
