Secure Socket Layer (SSL)
Managing devices with a web browser has been standard practice for several years. Unfortunately
standard HTTP transactions are no more secure than Telnet. The solution is the use of the Secure
Sockets Layer (SSL) protocol which provides a means of abstracting an encrypted connection
between two stations. Once established, such a connection is virtually no different to use than an
unsecured connection. This allows an established protocol (e.g. HTTP) to operate in a secure
manner on an open network.
