A session will also be terminated after 15 minutes of inactivity (default
setting) due to security reasons.
11.2
Authentication to the Router
No authentication is configured in default settings. Access to the web
interface is possible without login. Changes can be made. However, the
changes can only be activated, after an authentication has been configured.
Available authentication methods are:
• User name and password: a user must be added for this
• Certificate: the client authentication via certificate must be enabled and
a CA certificate must be uploaded for this
• RADIUS server: the authentication to a RADIUS server must be enabled
for this
If none of these authentication methods complies with these requirements, a
page will be displayed when activating the profile, which permits to add a
user.
If the router is commissioned with the startup wizard, a user must be added
during this process.
11.3
Access via HTTPS Protocol
The web interface only allows secure configuration using the HTTPS protocol
in default settings. The HTTPS protocol allows an authentication of the server
(i.e. the router) as well as an encryption of the data transmission. It is not
recommended to enable access via the HTTP protocol.
11.3.1
Authentication via the device-individual certificate/key
combination
The router will be authenticated via self-certified device-individual
certificate/key combination by default. In case of a first access via the HTTPS
protocol, the browser indicates that the router uses an invalid security
certificate. The certificate is not trusted, because the CA (certification
authority) certificate is unknown. You can ignore this warning and (depending
on browser and operating system) add an exception for this server or establish
the secure connection to this server nevertheless.
We recommend to download the CA certificate CA_INSYS_Router.pem from
the download page (https://www.insys-icom.com/manual/) and import it into
your browser, to approve INSYS MICROELECTRONICS as certification
authority. Proceed for this as described in the documentation of your browser.
