Specifying the Permitted Web Connection Type
Types of Connection
(HTTP/HTTPS)
The web access to the myUTN Control Center can be secured by
selecting the permitted types of connection (HTTP/HTTPS).
If HTTPS is exclusively chosen as the connection type, the
administrative web access to the myUTN Control Center is protected via
SSL/TLS. The cipher strength is defined via the encryption level Ö 80.
SSL/TLS requires a certificate to check the identity of the UTN server.
During a so-called 'handshake', the client asks for a certificate via a
browser. This certificate must be accepted by the browser. Please
refer to the documentation of your browser software. URLs that
require an SSL/TLS connection start with 'https'.
Proceed as follows:
1. Start the myUTN Control Center.
2. Select SECURITY - Device access.
3. Tick HTTP/HTTPS or HTTPS only in the Web area.
