Associating The Https Service With An Ssl Server Policy; Enabling The Https Service - 3Com 4500 PWR 26-Port Configuration Manual

Associating the HTTPS Service with an SSL Server Policy

You need to associate the HTTPS service with a created SSL server policy before enabling the HTTPS
service.
Follow these steps to associate the HTTPS service with an SSL server policy:
To do...
Enter system view
Associate the HTTPS service
with an SSL server policy
If the ip https ssl-server-policy command is executed repeatedly, the HTTPS service is only
associated with the last specified SSL server policy.
When the HTTPS service is enabled, no modification of its associated SSL server policy takes
effect.

Enabling the HTTPS Service

The device can act as the HTTPS server and users can access and control the device through the Web
function only when the HTTPS service is enabled.
Follow these steps to enable the HTTPS service:
To do...
Enter system view
Enable the HTTPS service
After the HTTPS service is enabled, you can use the display ip https command to view the state
of the HTTPS service and verify the configuration.
Enabling of the HTTPS service will trigger an SSL handshake negotiation process. During the
process, if the local certificate of the device already exists, the SSL negotiation is successfully
performed, and the HTTPS service can be started normally. If no local certificate exists, a
certificate application process will be triggered by the SSL negotiation. Since the application
process takes much time, the SSL negotiation may fail and the HTTPS service cannot be started
normally. Therefore, the ip https enable command must be executed for multiple times to ensure
normal startup of the HTTPS service.
Use the command...
system-view
ip https ssl-server-policy
