ProCurve Secure Access 700wl Series Management and Configuration Guide 6-23
Configuring the Network
For an Access Controller you can configure settings for:
— Bridging— lets you enable or disable Ethernet bridging and specify the type of traffic that should
be bridged
— Client Polling—lets you set the interval for polling an idle client, and the time-out after which an
idle client will be disassociated from the Access Controller.
• SSL Setup (Integrated Access Managers and Access Control Servers)—lets you create a certificate
signing request and load a signed certificate you receive from a Certificate Authority (CA)
By default, SSLv3 is enabled, but you can change the version of SSL used for the Login, Logout and
Stop pages to SSL v2.
• HTTP Proxy (Integrated Access Managers and Access Controllers)— lets you configure a proxy
server for HTTP requests
The Basic Setup and Advanced Setup tabs appear for both Access Control Servers and Access
Controllers. The SSL tab appears only for a Access Control Server or Integrated Access Manager. The
HTTP Proxy tab appears only for the Access Controller or Integrated Access Manager.
•
Save saves all changes from all sub-tabs. You can move between sub-tabs and the changes you make
on each page are preserved until you save or cancel.
•
Cancel discards all changes you have made on any of the sub-tabs since the last Save.
The
Reset to Defaults button resets the fields on the current sub-tab to their default values. These
changes are not immediately saved, however. You must click
Save to save them.
The network
settings for each component are specific to that component; different Access Controllers
can have different settings.
A concise version of the System Components List appears at the left of the page. You can open or close
its folders to streamline the display of components. You use the System Components List to select the
component you wish to configure.
