Use HTTPS for connection to WebView Extreme Switching on EMC

sgelmi — Tue, 12 Mar 2019 20:46:41 GMT

Hi,
i would like to configure EMC to use HTTPS when i want to open the WEB Interface of my switch.

Do you know where i can configure this option, if possible?

Thanks!
Bye

You can go to Vendor Profiles to add particular variables for your type/brand of switch or device.

Administration -> Vendor Profiles

Find your device (or family of the device) and add the variable you'd like. For instance, to use HTTPS://%IP as the URL for my device (in the below case, a Summit Series), when I choose "Webview," I'd add the Webview property to the device (or family) as follows.

This assumes, though, that the option is actually available on the switch (i.e., if your switch does not support the https connection (only http)) then this option would fail.

Hi Rodney,
Thanks for your response.
we don't see the Vendor Profiles tab. There is a minimum version for this workaround?

Bye!

You will need to contact GTAC and check your version to see if it’s eligible for this beta feature. They will also walk you through enabling it if applicable.

Good luck!
