You can configure SyncThru™ Admin 5 server settings including https connection and certification configuration.
From SyncThru™ Admin 5, click Settings menu > Settings > SyncThru Management > HTTP Security.
Configuring web server settings
SyncThru™ Admin 5 is a web based management server. By default, it works with HTTP port, 8080. Or if your server
works with HTTPS, it uses HTTPS port, 8081.
• To change the HTTP/HTTPS port number:
From SyncThru™ Admin 5, click Settings menu > Settings > SyncThru Management > HTTP Security > Web
Server Configuration > HTTP Port/HTTPS Port.
• To enable the SSL:
If you want to use a secure connection, you can use HTTPS by enabling the SSL.
From SyncThru™ Admin 5, click Settings menu > Settings > SyncThru Management > HTTP Security > Web
Server Configuration > Enable SSL.
• If you enable SSL, all the communications between SyncThru™ Admin 5 and your web browser are
sent encrypted by HTTPS
• Please make sure that your SyncThru™ Admin 5 has a certificate. If there is no certificate, you cannot
enable SSL (See "Creating Certification" on page 73).
SSL&Certification
If you want to use an SSL connection for security, you need to configure a certificate, which is required for the secured
connection. SyncThru™ Admin 5 does not provide the default certificate.
Creating Certification
From SyncThru™ Admin 5, click Settings menu > Settings > SyncThru Management > HTTP Security > Web
Server Configuration > Certificate Status.
• If the status is Certificate configured, there is already a certificate installed. In this case, you can see the details
of the installed certificate with Certificate Details button (See"Viewing Certification" on page 73).
• If the status is Certificate Not Configured, there is no certificate installed. Click Certificate Configuration. There
are three options for certificate settings:
- Create Self-Signed Certificate : Creates a certificate using SyncThru™ Admin 5’s provided functionality.
- Prepare Certificate Request : Creates the certificate for the external certificate authority.
- Upload Existing Certificate : Uploads the certificate already issued by the external or internal certificate
authority.
Viewing Certification
If there is a certificate installed, the Certificate Details button is available. You can see the details of the installed
certificate.
Enabling SSL Connection (HTTPS)
From SyncThru™ Admin 5, click Settings menu > Settings > SyncThru Management > HTTP Security > Web
Server Configuration > Enable SSL
Please make sure that you enter https://ip_address:https_port_number in your web browser address bar when
SSL is enabled. If you type http://ip_address:https_port_number or https://ip_address in the web browser
address bar, the page will not load.
Disabling SSL Connection (HTTPS)
From SyncThru™ Admin 5, click Settings menu > Settings > SyncThru Management > HTTP Security > Web
Server Configuration > Enable SSL. Uncheck the check box.
Authentication
Authentication is for maintaining SyncThru™ Admin 5 access rights. If you enable the Authentication, SyncThru™
Admin 5 requires a user account when opening SyncThru™ Admin 5 via a web browser. Choose one of the
Authentication types according to the security policy for your site. Authentication types are Local Authentication,
LDAP Authentication and Domain Authentication.
• If a user using IE in Windows, uses domain account and if the user’s domain account is registered in
SyncThru™ Admin 5, while Domain Authentication is on, SSO (Single Sign On) is applied when the user
logs in to the PC. So, if the user opens SyncThru™ Admin 5 from an SSO applied PC, the user does not
need to log in to SyncThru™ Admin 5, the user is automatically logged in.
• If you configure the authentication during setup, SyncThru™ Admin 5 will use Local Authentication type.
