Configure HTTP Settings

To access the ASA interface for management access, you must specify the addresses of all hosts/networks which are allowed to access the ASA using HTTP. If you configure HTTP redirect to redirect HTTP connections to HTTPS automatically, you must enable an access rule to allow HTTP; otherwise, the interface cannot listen to the HTTP port.

Procedure

Step 1

In the edit ASA system settings page, click HTTP in the left pane.

Step 2

Uncheck the Retain existing values checkbox to configure the values for the shared ASA system settings policy.

Important

If the Retain existing values check box is selected, you can't configure the values as the fields are hidden. Security Cloud Control uses the existing local values of the ASA device for this setting and doesn't inherit from the shared policy.

Step 3

Check the Enable HTTP Server check box to enable the HTTP server.

Step 4

In the Port Number field, set the port number. The port identifies the port from which the interface redirects HTTP connections.

Warning

If you change the HTTP port on your device, it may cause some problems with its connection to Security Cloud Control. It's important to remember this if you plan to alter any settings related to your device's network connection.

Step 5

Click to add HTTP information.

Interface: Ensure the interface name specified here is the same on the ASA devices associated with this shared system settings policy.
IP Version: Select the IP address version you want to use.
IP Address: Specify the addresses of all hosts/networks that can access the ASA using HTTP.
Netmask: Specify the subnet mask for the network.

Note	To remove a host, you can click the delete icon under Actions.

Step 6

Click Save.
