The certificate is imported to the web browser.

Blocking HTTP communication to the storage system

If the web server (SVP) supports SSL (HTTPS), the HTTP setting tool allows you to block access to
port 80. In that case, the connection used to import the certificate from the web browser to the
web server (SVP) will take place on port 443 (HTTPS).

If you are using Command View Advanced Edition to Remote Web Console, blocking HTTP
communication might interfere with that access. Make sure the Command View Advanced Edition
are able to use SSL communication to Remote Web Console.

Procedure 7 To block HTTP communication:

1.

Log off from all Remote Web Console web clients attached to the SVP.

2.

Start both the Remote Web Console web client and your web browser.

3.

Specify the URL as follows:

https://IP-address-or-host-name-of-SVP/cgi-bin/utility/toolpanel.cgi

4.

In the Tool Panel dialog box, click Set up HTTP Blocking.

5.

Enter the user ID and password for the storage administrator, then click Logon. The Set up
HTTP Blocking appears.

6.

Click OK. A confirmation dialog box appears.

7.

Click OK to implement HTTP blocking. When the configuration change is complete, the SVP
will reboot. Once the reboot is complete, the HTTP Communications Blocked dialog box will
appear. If you want to cancel the operation and return to the logon dialog box, click Cancel.

It may take 30 or 60 minutes for the web server to restart. In this case, the Release HTTP
Blocking Complete dialog box does not appear and an internal server error occurs, but the
setting is actually completed.

Click OK. You will return to the logon dialog box.
