Additional features#
The use of additional features is available both at the installation stage and after the installation of the System. If changes are made after the System is fully installed, the System must be completely restarted in order to apply them.
Using the HTTPS Protocol and Generating Encryption Keys#
LUNA CARS allows the use of an encrypted connection via an SSL certificate and the HTTPS protocol.
To do this, open the system interface using the port specified in the ANALYTICS_FRONTEND_SSL_PORT parameter.
By default, the value of this parameter is 443. Thus, the system is available at:
https://<IP_address>:443
The parameter value can be changed if necessary. In this case, the manually set port number must be used.
By default, the system includes a file containing the SSL private key.
To generate a new encryption key, follow these steps:
1․ Go to /extras directory:
cd cars-installer_v.2.15.0/extras
2․ Run the encryption key generation script:
./nginx_cert_gen.sh
Follow the prompts during the script execution.
Once completed, a new encryption key will be generated.
