NetMRI allows operation in both Hypertext Transfer Protocol Secure (HTTPS) mode and in HTTP. By default, both modes are enabled. However, Infoblox recommends disabling the HTTP mode.
To enable or disable the HTTP and HTTPS modes, perform the following:
- Go to the Settings icon > General Settings > Security.
- Click the Net MRI HTTPS Settings tab.
- Select Enable HTTP for the Net MRI Interface, Enable HTTPS for the NetMRI Interface, or both.
Use caution when saving your settings for UI browser operation. Settings on this page affect the operation of the Web server that is built into NetMRI, requiring a restart of the NetMRI web service. In case of a mistake (accidentally disabling both HTTP and HTTPS, for example), you may not be able to access the web interface after committing settings. To address this, use a terminal program, using the admin account, to connect to the NetMRI admin shell and run the configure http command, which is the command-line version of the feature set presented in the NetMRI HTTPS Settings tab.
4. Close the Settings window.
