d. HTTP Port: Enter the HTTP port number assigned to the NetWay8GL module by the network
administrator to allow remote access and monitoring. The default inbound port setting is 80. HTTP is not
encrypted and unsecure. Even though HTTP can be used for remote access, it is recommended primarily
for use with LAN connections.
Secure Network Setup (HTTPS):
In order to setup HTTPS for a Secure Network Connection, a Valid Certificate and Key must be used. Certificates
and Key should be in a ".PEM" format. Self Certifications should only be used for testing
purposes as no actual authentication is being performed. In a Self-Certified mode, the connection will still state
that it is unsecure. How to upload Certificate and Key to setup HTTPS:
1. Open Tab Labeled "Security"
2. Select Tab Labeled "Email/SSL"
3. Scroll to bottom under "SSL Settings"
4. Click "Select Certificate"
5. Browse and select valid Certificate to upload from server
6. Click "Select Key"
7. Browse and select valid Key to upload from server
8. Click "Submit Files"
Once the Certificate and Key is uploaded successfully you can proceed with setting up
HTTPS in Network Settings.
