Connection / HTTP


This category only appears if VanDyke Software's SecureFX® 3.0 (or newer) is also installed.

The HTTP category of the Session Options dialog allows you to control attributes of HTTP connections. The HTTP category only appears when you have selected HTTP or HTTPS as your Protocol.

HTTP logon group

Hostname (or Endpoint)

The hostname or IP address of the remote machine that provides the HTTP/S service. For an AWS S3 connection, the hostname will be s3.amazonaws.com or the regional STS Endpoint.

Port

The port number of the HTTP service on the remote machine. For HTTP, the default port is 80. For HTTPS, the default port is 443.

Firewall

If your connection involves a firewall, select your firewall from the list of firewalls that have been  configured in the Global Options/Firewall dialog.

Note: You can also select an SFTP or SCP session to be used as a firewall. If SecureFX is integrated with SecureCRT, an SSH2 session can also be used as a firewall. When a session is specified as a firewall, the firewall session will be connected first.

The username used to log on to the remote machine. If the selected transfer protocol is HTTPS (S3), the IAM user's Access Key ID should be specified.

Password (or Secrect Access Key)

The password used to log on to the remote machine. If the selected transfer protocol is HTTPS (S3), the IAM user's Secret Access Key should be specified.
