Chapter 15 System authentication (one party can identify the other party) and data integrity (you know if data has been changed). It relies upon certificates, public keys, and private keys (see Chapter 14 on page 171 for more information). HTTPS on the NWA3000-N series AP is used so that you can securely access the NWA3000-N series AP using the Web Configurator. The SSL protocol specifies that the HTTPS server (the NWA3000-N series AP) must always authenticate itself to the HTTPS client (the computer which requests the HTTPS connection with the NWA3000-N series AP), whereas the HTTPS client only should authenticate itself when the HTTPS server requires it to do so (select Authenticate Client Certificates in the WWW screen). Authenticate Client Certificates is optional and if selected means the HTTPS client must send the NWA3000-N series AP a certificate. You must apply for a certificate for the browser from a CA that is a trusted CA on the NWA3000-N series AP. Please refer to the following figure. 1 HTTPS connection requests from an SSL-aware web browser go to port 443 (by default) on the NWA3000-N series AP's web server. 2 HTTP connection requests from a web browser go to port 80 (by default) on the NWA3000-N series AP's web server. Figure 89 HTTP/HTTPS Implementation Note: If you disable HTTP in the WWW screen, then the NWA3000-N series AP blocks all HTTP connection attempts. 15.5.4 Configuring WWW Service Control Click Configuration > System > WWW to open the WWW screen.
