DASDEC II-1EN Platform ID
This is a unique identifier for the actual DASDEC II hardware. This identifier is different for every DASDEC II. It
cannot be edited. This identification string is needed for DAS to generate a license key to enable an unlicensed
feature.
Server Name
The DASDEC II server name can be edited. This is the name the DASDEC II presents through the Web browser
interface. This name can have spaces. Do not confuse the Server Name with the server network hostname (see
below). To change the name, click the button.
Web Interface Security
A text link displays whether the DASDEC II Web interface is configured for both unencrypted HTTP and SSL
encrypted HTTPS access, or only SSL secured http access. To change this setting, click the link "
Follow this link
to change ." The link takes you to the Setup > Network > Security page.
The Server Network Security Configuration page has a section Web Interface Access Security where you can
modify the Access security checkbox. If this box is checked, web access to the DASDEC II will be forced to be in
128 bit SSL secured https. Use this if the DASDEC II is ever on a public LAN. Left unchecked, the access allows
both http and https.
