3 Managing the M220
The M220 is managed via its web-based management tool using Microsoft Internet
Explorer 8+ or Mozilla Firefox 9+. You can access the M220 management tool using either
http or https. Using https is more secure but you will see a security warning until you
purchase and install your own certificate. With https, it is acceptable to choose the option that
allows you to proceed through the security warning.
In a web browser, specify either: http://192.168.1.1 or h t tp s : / /192 .168 .1.1.
For information on launching the management tool for the first time, see the HP M220 802.11n
Access Point Quickstart.
Configuring web server settings
Select Management > Management tool to open the Configure web server settings
page.
HTTPS server status
HTTP server status
The M220 software includes HTTP and HTTPS functionality to enable communication with your
web browser. Unlike HTTP, HTTPS enables secure sessions, using a digital certificate to encrypt
data exchanged between the M220 and your web browser. HTTP and HTTPS are both enabled
by default.
The M220 supports only one management session at a time via HTTP or HTTPS.
HTTP port
By default, the HTTP server uses the well-known logical port number 80 for communication with
clients. You can specify a different port number if port 80 is blocked or used for a different
protocol on your network.
Session timeout
If there is no activity on the management session for the specified time, then the administrator
will be automatically logged off.
