Remote HTTP/HTTPS Access
1. 
Select Services > Standard File Protocols, and select the HTTP check box.
HTTP 
•     
Redirect default Web access to this share. Advanced configuration option allowing 
hosting of user-created HTTP Web pages on the ReadyNAS.
•     
Login authentication on this share. Configures the share for whether or not 
authentication is required if users are browsing to the user-created Web content.
HTTPS
HTTPS cannot be disabled; FrontView requires it.
•     
Port 1. This field cannot be modified; it is reserved for the ReadyNAS. 
•     
Port 2. This field can be used to allow HTTPS connections over a port other than the 
standard 443. 
Note:  
Changing the default HTTPS port requires enabling port forwarding 
of the port you choose on the router. Refer to the port forwarding 
instructions provided with your router.
•     
SSL key host. Use this field to configure the hostname used for the ReadyNAS to 
generate its SSL certificate, and then create a new SSL certificate. NETGEAR 
recommends that you update this field to match the current IP address of the 
ReadyNAS and then generate a new SSL certificate to avoid future certificate errors 
from your Web browser. 
In this scenario, it is best to have a fixed IP configuration for the ReadyNAS so that 
the certificate remains valid. Also, if the WAN IP address configuration is DHCP, 
NETGEAR recommends that you use a Dynamic DNS service to access the 
ReadyNAS through a persistent fully qualified domain name provided by a DDNS 
service provider rather than through an IP address.
