If necessary, you can disable HTTP or HTTPS support. If disabling HTTP, you must first configure a self-signed or custom certificate in Address Manager.

To disable HTTP or HTTPS support:

  1. Select the Settings tab in the sidebar.
  2. Under System security, select Web access.
  3. Set the following parameters:
    Note: When replication is configured between Address Manager servers, web access settings for primary and standby servers are represented on separate tabs.
    • HTTP enabled—deselect the checkbox to disable HTTP and continue with step 4. If disabling HTTPS, you must enable HTTP. You cannot disable HTTPS if HTTP is configured to redirect to HTTPS.
    • HTTPS enabled—deselect the checkbox to disable HTTPS and continue with step 5.
  4. Under Server certificate settings, complete the following:
    • If using a custom certificate, select Reapply certificates.
  5. In the Change control section, add comments if required.
  6. Select Update web access settings. The Address Manager server will be temporarily unavailable as the changes are committed and the server restarts.

Result:

  1. Login to Address Manager once the configuration is compete.
    Note: After modifying HTTP or HTTPS, your browser might warn you about an unknown or invalid certificate. This warning will cease once you accept the certificate and log in to Address Manager.
  2. From the certificate warning, proceed to the site. Depending on your browser, this might entail clicking a button or creating an exception.
Resetting HTTP service
Note: If you are unable to reach your Address Manager server via HTTP or HTTPS, you can restore HTTP service from the Address Manager Administration Console. For details, refer to Resetting HTTP service.
