Configuring TLS on the Web Server

The Web GUI supports the use of HTTP over Transport Layer Security (TLS) using the TLS Protocol. TLS is a cryptographic protocol that provides communication security over the Internet. It encrypts the segments of network connections at the Transport Layer, using asymmetric cryptography for key exchange, symmetric encryption for privacy, and message authentication codes for message integrity.

Note:

For more information about setting up security on your Net-Net ESD, see the chapter on security in this guide.

To use TLS with SIP Monitor and Trace, you must configure a TLS certificate and a TLS profile using the ACLI at the path Configure Terminal > Security. This configuration stores the information required to run SIP over TLS.

If you enable TLS on the active Net-Net ESD, the Web-based GUI interface on the standby system is disabled.
