4.2.2. Configuration of HTTP and HTTPS

This page enables you to set the protocol to communicate with the web server of GANZ
ENCODER AND NETWORK CAMERA. Basically, the data transmitted by HTTPS is encrypted by
SSL. GANZ ENCODER AND NETWORK CAMERA series is applied with OpenSSL. HTTPS is highly
recommended method compared to HTTP for the security reason but if you want to use HTTP,
you can check 'Enable HTTP' easily.
What is SSL?
It's the abbreviation of Secure Socket Layer. SSL protects web server and makes it easy for
users to trust the contents. When you use HTTPS for communication with server, the SSL
certificate is required for the web server and the certificate enables encryption of video and
audio data during online transactions. OpenSSL is one of the data security protocols for Linux
system, which is used for the GANZ ENCODER AND NETWORK CAMERA series.
Setting the port number of web server
To communicate with server by HTTP or HTTPS with TCP, the port number can be fixed
between 1 and 65535. The factory default is set as 443.
Redirecting HTTP to HTTPS:
Even if a user tries to access server with http, you can enable the server to redirect to HTTPS.
In this case, do not set '80' for port number because it can cause a conflict with HTTP port.
