Selecting HTTP or HTTPS for Management

HTTP (Hypertext Transfer Protocol) is the “language” used to move files (text, graphic images, and multi-

media files) on the Internet. HTTPS (Hypertext Transfer Protocol over Secure Socket Layer) is a more

secure version of HTTP. When using HTTPS, the Web server and your browser encrypt and decrypt the

information you transmit. The Firebox® X Edge e-Series uses HTTPS by default, for better security.

To make the Firebox X Edge configuration pages appear more quickly, you can use HTTP. Using HTTP is

less secure. When you use HTTP, all configuration changes are sent to the Edge from your computer in

clear text. We recommend that you always use HTTPS to configure your Edge. You must connect to the

Firebox X Edge using HTTPS one time before you can connect using HTTP.

Follow these instructions to use HTTP instead of HTTPS:

1 Type https:// in the browser address bar, and the IP address of the Firebox X Edge trusted

interface.

The default URL is: https://192.168.111.1.

2 From the navigation bar, select Administration > System Security.

The System Security page appears.

3 Select the Use non-secure HTTP instead of secure HTTPS for administrative Web site check box.

You will see a warning to make sure you change the HTTP server port to its default port of 80. To connect to the

Firebox X Edge, you must use the same port in your browser as the HTTP server port on the Edge.

4 Click Submit.

If you select this check box, type

http:// in the browser address bar instead of the default https://

to see the configuration pages.

Changing the HTTP Server Port

To see the Firebox® X Edge e-Series configuration pages, or for a user to authenticate to the Edge, the

browser must connect on the same port as the Edge HTTP server. Because HTTPS uses TCP port 443

(HTTP uses TCP port 80), the default HTTP server port for the Edge is 443.
