3. System Conﬁguration

3.4 Services and Service Access

The Administrator can access the console server, connected serial ports and managed devices by using a range of access

protocols/services. For each such access:

• The particular service must ﬁrst be conﬁgured and enabled to run on the console server.

• Then, access through the ﬁrewall must be enabled for each network connection.

To enable and conﬁgure a service:

• Select the Service Settings tab on the System: Services page.

Note: With ﬁrmware releases pre-3.5.3, services are enabled and conﬁgured using the Service Access tab on the System: Firewall

page.

• Enable and conﬁgure basic services:

HTTP By default, the HTTP service is running and cannot be fully disabled. However, by default, HTTP access is disabled

on all interfaces. It is recommended this access remains disabled if the console server is to be remotely accessed

over the Internet.

Alternate HTTP also enables you to conﬁgure an alternate HTTP port to listen on. However, the HTTP service will

continue internally listening on TCP port 80 (for CMS and sdt-connector communications), but will be inaccessible

through the ﬁrewall.

HTTPS By default, the HTTPS service is running and this service is enabled on all network interfaces. It is recommended

that only HTTPS access be used if the console server is to be managed over any public network (e.g. the Internet).

This ensures the Administrator has secure browser access to all the menus on the console server. It also allows

appropriately conﬁgured Users secure browser access to selected Manage menus. For information on certiﬁcate and

user client software conﬁguration, refer to section 9. Authentication.

The HTTPS service can be completely disabled (or re-enabled) by checking HTTPS Web Management and an

alternate port speciﬁed (default port is 443).
