Enabling HTTPS for Secure Browsing

You can protect communication with the access point web browser interface by
enabling HTTPS. HTTPS protects HTTP browser sessions by using the Secure
Socket Layer (SSL) protocol.
When you enable HTTPS, your browser can lose its connection to the access
point. If you lose the connection, change the URL in your browser address line
from http://ip_address to https://ip_address and log into the access point again.
When you enable HTTPS, most browsers prompt you for approval each time
you browse to a device that does not have a fully qualified domain name
(FQDN). To avoid the approval prompts, complete Step 2 through Step 9 in
these instructions to create an FQDN for the access point. However, if you do
not want to create an FQDN, skip to Step 10.
Follow these steps to create an FQDN and enable HTTPS:
1. Go to Services > DNS.
