Web Interface

WinRoute contains a special Web server that can be used for several purposes, such as an

interface for viewing of statistics (Kerio StaR) and setting of certain user account parameters.

This Web server is available over SSL or using standard HTTP with no encryption (both versions

include identical pages).

Use the following URL (’server’ refers to the name or IP of the WinRoute host, 4080 repre-

sents a standard HTTP interface port) to open the unsecured version of the web interface.

https://server:4080/

To use the encrypted version specify the HTTPS protocol and number of the port of the en-

crypted Web interface (default is 4081):

https://server:4081/

Note: This chapter addresses settings of web interface parameters and user preferences (avail-

able to all users). Statistics viewed in the web interface (available only to users possessing

appropriate rights) are addressed in chapter

21

.

ration Advanced Options.

Note: The top part of the Web Interface / SSL-VPN tab is used for Kerio SSL-VPN settings. For

detailed information on this component, see chapter

24

.

Enable Kerio SSL-VPN server

This option enables/disables the Kerio Clientless SSL-VPN interface. For details, refer to

chapter

24

.

Enable Web Interface (HTTP)

Use this option to open the unsecured version (HTTP) of the Web interface The default

port for this unsecured interface is 4080.

Note: The main disadvantage of usage of the unsecured web interface is that the network

traffic may be tapped and user login data might be misused. Therefore, the secured web

interface should be preferred.
