Q:

How do I configure the viewLinc Web server for SSL

security?

A:

Enabling SSL (https://) on the viewLinc web server requires

completion of the following steps:

To set up the SSL port on a new installation:

When installing viewLinc for the first time, the install wizard
prompts you to provide information on the web server:

Select the mode:

The web server can run in Secure mode, Non-secure
mode or Both.

If available, the default ports are applied (80 = Non-
secure and 443 = Secure).

If the default ports are not available, provide alternative
port numbers.

To set up the SSL port on an existing installation:

The viewLinc configuration file contains the port numbers. The file
is located in: <datadirectory>\config\viewlinc.cfg

The following section contains the viewLinc ports:

[web]

port=80

https_port=443

1

Set the ports as desired:

Setting the port to zero (0) disables non-secure access.

Setting https_port to zero (0) disables secure access.

Note: The defaults of 80 and 443 are preferred.
