HTTPS support for HTTP services

OS10 switches support the HTTP protocol for services such as file copy, image upgrade, and so on. This feature provides a secure HTTP (HTTPS) option for all services.

The HTTPS option supports self-signed, third-party CA signed, and Public or Renowned CA certified certificates. You must install self-signed and third-party CA-signed certificates on the OS10 switch.

This feature also introduces an insecure option to all the HTTPS services. Use this option to skip the peer verification process if the server is running self-signed certificates for HTTPS.

Restrictions and Limitations

Following are the restrictions and limitations that apply for this feature:

  • If the remote end is using a third-party CA certificate, you must install that certificate in the OS10 switch.
  • If the remote end is using a self-signed certificate, you must install certificate of the CA that signed the remote end's certificate on the OS10 switch to complete HTTPS operations using the trusted-host option on the crypto ca-cert install command.
NOTE: For Debian certificate store operation: The Debian certificate store is enhanced to link the local CA certificate directory (/usr/local/share/ca-certficates) to the existing OS10 CA certificate directory (/config/certs/ca-certificates). This enhancement allows you to install or remove OS10 CA certificates from the Debian certificate store. There is no management of individual files.
