III-6-3. SECURITY SERVICE CONTROL
We provide 4 types of interface which are HTTP, HTTPS, SSH, and Telnet to access the management
interface of the switch. Users can configure the authority for each type of service to be enabled or
disabled. All services are enabled by default and users can disable unused service to make the system
more secure.
CONFIGURE SERVICE CONTROL INFORMATION
HTTP
Enable or Disable to access management interface by HTTP which is the foundation of data
communication for the World Wide Web (WWW).
HTTPS
Enable or Disable to access management interface by HTTPS which is an adaptation of HTTP for
security. The communication will be encrypted in HTTPS.
SSH
Enable or Disable to access management interface by SSH which is a cryptographic network
protocol. SSH provides a secure channel over an unsecured network in the client-server architecture.
The switch plays the role of SSH server and hosts plays the role of SSH client.
Telnet
Enable or Disable to access management interface by Telnet which is a text-oriented virtual
terminal connection. It’s less secure than SSH because it doesn’t encrypt any data even password
when the data is transmitting.
