After you have created a Web Server role, you can configure user session time, usage statistics, the URL, port settings, and the SSL certificate for the Security Center Web Client.
What you should know
- By default, a Web Server is deployed to the main Security Center server. If you have multiple Web Server roles, assign each role to a different expansion server.
- The URL of each Web Client must be unique.
- You can set up load balancing by adding multiple servers in the Resources page. Security Center automatically uses the server with the least number of connections.
- If end-users will monitor video in Web
Client using Mozilla Firefox or Microsoft Edge
browsers, make sure that one of the following conditions is met:
- A valid SSL certificate is installed on the server hosting the Web Server
role.NOTE: If a third-party certificate was already installed on the server through Windows, you can apply the certificate to Security Center from Server Admin: select your server from the list, under the Secure communication section, click Select certificate, select the certificate you want, and then click .
- If using the default self-signed SSL certificate, make sure that the REST ports on the Media Gateway role and the Web Server port settings match; the defaults are port 80 for HTTP and port 443 for HTTPS.
- A valid SSL certificate is installed on the server hosting the Web Server
role.
