Unable to view Equallogic web interface via https

All,

We have several Equallogics and have in the past been able to login to the Web GUI using https://. When we try this now, we receive an error saying "Secure Connection Failed".

We can still access them using plain http://.  The box in the Web GUI stating "Only accept secure connections" is ticked.

Any ideas how we can fix this as we would rather access them using https.

Regards
Colin

The support for https was removed with FW 8.x and newer. If you think about Heartbleed, Poodle, SHA1 and so on the https  causes more trouble as it helps because all what do do is to download the Java applet from the webserver.. The applet use its own encryption when it uses port 3003? for communication with the EQL backend.
