The Web Server supports all versions of the TLS protocol, but, due to security concerns, does not support any versions of the SSL protocol. The Web Server page allows the system administrator to:
Configure attributes of the web server.
View and terminate current web sessions.
Import a site-specific SSL certificate
Enable an iGoogle gadget that displays the status of ports on multiple SLC or SLB units.
To configure web server settings:
Complete the following fields:
Timeout |
Number of minutes (5-120) after which the SLC or SLB web session times out. The default is 5. To avoid timeouts, select No. If the session times out, refresh the browser page and enter your user ID and password to open another web session. Note: If you close the browser without logging off the SLC or SLB unit first, you will have to wait for the timeout time to expire. You can also end a web session by using the admin web terminate command at the CLI or by asking your system administrator to terminate your active web session. To view or terminate current web sessions, click the Web Sessions link. To view, import, or reset the SSL Certificate, click the SSL Certificate link. |
Enable iGoogle Gadget Web Content |
Select the check box to enable an SLC or SLB iGoogle gadget. The iGoogle gadget allows an iGoogle user to view the port status of many SLCs on one web page. |
Cipher |
By default, the web uses High/Medium security (128 bits or higher) for the cipher. This option can be used to configure the web to also support Low security (less than 128 bits) for the cipher. Changing this option requires a reboot for the change to take effect. |
Group Access |
If undefined, any group can access the web. If one or more groups are specified (groups are delimited by the characters ',' (comma) or ';' (semicolon)), then any user who logs into the web must be a member of one of the specified groups, otherwise access will be denied. Users authenticated via RADIUS may have a group (or groups) provided by the RADIUS server via the Filter-Id attribute that overrides the group defined for a user on the SLC or SLB unit. A group provided by a remote server must be either a single group or multiple groups delimited by the characters ',' (comma), ';' (semicolon), or '=' (equals) - for example "group=group1,group2;" or "group1,group2,group3". |
Banner |
The
text to display on the web manager home page after the user logs
in. May contain up to 1024 characters (single quote and double
quote characters are not supported). Blank by default. |
Network Interfaces |
The interfaces that the web server is available on. By default, Eth1, Eth2 and PPP interfaces on modems are enabled. |
Run Web Server |
If enabled, the web server will run and listen on TCP ports 80 and 443 (all requests to port 80 are redirected to port 443). By default, the web server is enabled. |
To save, select Apply.
