Adjusting the HTTP Service

Last Updated : Nov 19, 2019 |

About this task

You can edit the level of security used for HTTP/HTTPS access.
Important:

The HTTP service is also used by other IP Office applications.

Procedure

  1. Using IP Office Manager, access the IP Office system's security settings.
  2. Click Services Services and select HTTP.
  3. The Service Security Level is the only setting that can be changed. It controls the unsecure (HTTP) and or secure (HTTPS) access depending on the usage.

    Service Security Level

    Usage

    Disabled

    The service and corresponding Transmission Control Protocol (TCP) ports are inactive.

    Unsecure Only

    Allows only unsecured access to the service. The service's secure TCP port is disabled.

    Unsecure + Secure

    Allows both unsecured and secure (Low) access.

    Secure, Low

    Allows secure access to the service using Transport Layer Security (TLS), and demands weaker (for example 3 DES) encryption and authentication or higher.

    The service's unsecured TCP port is disabled.

    Secure, Medium

    Allows secure access to that service using TLS, and demands moderate (for example AES-128) encryption and authentication or higher.

    The service's unsecured TCP port is disabled.

    Secure, High

    Allows secure access to that service using TLS and demands stronger (for example AES-256) encryption and authentication, or higher. In addition, a certificate is required from the client.

    The service's unsecured TCP port is disabled.
  4. Click OK.
  5. Click on the Save icon to save the security changes.
