At this point, your web browser may display a security warning
message to indicate that it does not consider the access point, which
created its own HTTPS certificate, as a trusted certificate authority. If
you see a warning message, you should be able to close it and
manage the device. To eliminate the message, add the access point
as a trusted certificate authority to the web browser. Refer to the web
browser documentation for instructions.

9. You should now be able to log on to the access point.

Disabling the

HTTPS Server

The following procedure explains how to disable the HTTPS server on the
access point. Please review the following guidelines before performing the
procedure:

Disabling the HTTPS server while managing the access point with
HTTPS interrupts your management session. You may use HTTP
or SNMP to continue managing the device.

If the maximum number of active sessions is set to 1, the default
value, you may have to wait until the inactive session timer times
out before starting a new session. The default is five minutes. The
maximum number of active sessions does not apply to SNMP.

If you disable HTTPS without configuring HTTP or SNMP, you
cannot manage the access point. Your only alternative is to return
the device to its default settings with the Reset button on the back
panel.

To disable the HTTPS server, perform this procedure:

1. From the Services menu, select HTTP/HTTPS.

The access point displays the “Configure Web Server Settings”
window. Refer to Figure 47 on page 151.

2. Click the Disabled dialog circle for the HTTPS Server Status field.

The following prompt is displayed.
