CHAPTER 4: WEB GRAPHICAL USER INTERFACE (GUI)

4.2.10 SERVICES

You can close or change the ports used to access the unit's web interface, disable HTTP and enable HTTPS only, which
can also be set to be used as default.
On the AlertWerks Gateway, the HTTPS supports TLS v1.1 and v1.2.
The HTTPS cypher suites are not customizable.
Using the "Upload Certificate File" option you can upload an SSL certificate that will be used by the unit's Web UI for
HTTPS connection.
SSL Certificate
SSL certificates are generated for DNS host names and not IP addresses. You should set a host name for the
AlertWerks Gateway unit in your local DNS server or DHCP server, and then generate the SSL certificate for that host
name.
Example: spplus.mycompany.org
The unit's DNS host name is "spplus". Wildcard SSL certificates should also work, but this hasn't been tested.
If the name doesn't match with the one in the certificate, the browser will still show a security warning.
You can purchase a certificate from a trusted, verified Certificate Authority such as GoDaddy or use your company's
own CA if you have one.
Please note that only non-password protected certificate files are supported.
