following steps to set up your webserver preferences:
Click Preferences on
the global navigation bar.
The Preferences home page appears.
Click General Settings.
The Server Preferences window, set options as necessary.
The Session Timeout (minutes) feature can
be used to set a limit on the amount of time that a Server Administrator
session remains active. Select Enable, allows Server Administrator
to time out if there is no user interaction for a specified number
of minutes. Users whose session times out must log in again to continue.
Select Disable, disables the Server Administrator Session Timeout (minutes) feature.
The HTTPS Port field specifies the port for
Server Administrator. The default secure port for Server Administrator
is 1311.
NOTE: Changing
the port number to an invalid or in-use port number may prevent other
applications or browsers from accessing Server Administrator on the
managed system. For a list of default ports, see the Server Administrator
Installation Guide available at dell.com/openmanagemanuals.
The IP Address to Bind to field specifies
the IP addresses for the managed system that Server Administrator
binds to when starting a session. Select All to bind to all IP addresses applicable for your system. Select Specific to bind to a specific IP address.
NOTE: Changing the IP
Address to Bind to value to a value other than All may prevent other applications or browsers from accessing Server
Administrator on the managed system.
The Mail To field specifies the email addresses
to which you want to send emails about updates by default. You can
configure multiple email addresses and use a comma to separate each
one.
The SMTP Server Name (or IP Address) and DNS Suffix for SMTP Server fields specify your company or organization's
Simple Mail Transfer Protocol (SMTP) and domain name server (DNS)
suffix. To enable Server Administrator to send emails, type the IP
address and DNS suffix for the SMTP Server for your company or organization
in the appropriate fields.
NOTE: For security reasons,
your company or organization might not allow emails to be sent through
the SMTP server to outside accounts.
The Command Log Size field specifies the largest
file size in MB for the command log file.
NOTE: This field appears
only when you log in to manage the Server Administrator Web Server.
The Support Link field specifies the URL for
the business entity that provides support for your managed system.
The Custom Delimiter field specifies the character
used to separate the data fields in the files created using the Export button. The ; character is the default delimiter.
Other options are!, @, #, $, %, ^, *, ~, ?, |, and, .
The SSL Cipher field specifies
a secure connection between the web server and the browser. Choose
the ciphers that support the web server while configuring. The connection
service does not start if an invalid cipher suite is set. By default,
the following are the cipher suite values:
TLS_ECDHE_RSA_WITH_AES_128_CBC_SHA256,
TLS_ECDHE_RSA_WITH_AES_128_CBC_SHA,
TLS_ECDHE_RSA_WITH_AES_256_CBC_SHA384,
TLS_ECDHE_RSA_WITH_AES_256_CBC_SHA,
TLS_RSA_WITH_AES_128_CBC_SHA256,
TLS_RSA_WITH_AES_128_CBC_SHA,
TLS_RSA_WITH_AES_256_CBC_SHA256,
TLS_RSA_WITH_AES_256_CBC_SHANOTE
NOTE: If an incorrect
cipher value is set and the connection service fails to start, use
the CLI command prompt or manually set the valid ciphers and restart
the connection service.
The SSL Protocols field allows you to set
from the web server listed SSL protocols to establish an HTTPS connection.
The possible values are: TLSv1 , TLSv1.1 , TLSv1.2 , (TLSv1, TLSv1.1) , (TLSv1.1, TLSv1.2) and (TLSv1, TLSv1.1,
TLSv1.2). By default, the value of SSL protocol is set to (TLSv1, TLSv1.1, TLSv1.2). The changes take effect after
web server restart.
NOTE: If the protocol is not supported by default configurations, enable
the SSL Protocol from the browser settings.
Key Signing Algorithm (For Self-Signed Certificate) — Allows you to select a supported signing algorithm. If you select
either SHA 512 or SHA 256, ensure that your operating system/browser supports this algorithm.
If you select one of these options without the requisite operating
system/browser support, Server Administrator displays a cannot
display the webpage error. This field is meant only for Server
Administrator autogenerated self-signed certificates. The drop-down
list is grayed out if you import or generate new certificates into
Server Administrator.
The Java Runtime Environment — Allows you to
select the one of the following options:
Bundled JRE — Enables use
of the JRE provided along with the System Administrator.
System JRE — Enables use of
the JRE installed on the system. Select the required version from
the drop-down list.
NOTE: Server Administrator
does not recommend the upgrade to major versions of Java Runtime Environment
(JRE), it is limited to the security patch and minor JRE versions.
For more details, see the release notes of Server Administrator (packaged
with Server Administrator application) or at dell.com/openmanagemanuals.
NOTE: If
the JRE does not exist on the system on which Server Administrator
is running, the JRE provided with the Server Administrator is used.
When you finish setting options in the Server
Preferences window, click Apply.
NOTE: You must restart the Server Administrator web server for the changes
to take effect.
