Note
Transferring passwords created offline to the drive
Passwords created offline must be transferred to the drive before accessing the web server. To
transfer the passwords created offline to the drive unit, proceed as follows:
1. Connect to your drive unit online (see Chapter: "Establishing an online connection to the
drive (Page 152)").
2. Load the set project data into your drive unit (see Chapter: "Loading the project data into the
converter (Page 242)").
Deactivating the web server
When your converter is supplied, the web server is activated as default setting. When required,
you can deactivate the web server as follows:
1. In the configuration dialog, deactivate the "Activate" option.
2. Then save the project to accept the settings.
Restricting web server access to just secure connections
Using the default configuration of the web server, you can access the SINAMICS S120 converter
via an HTTP connection or via an encrypted HTTPS connection. Using the configuration, access
can be restricted so that only a secure HTTPS connection is possible. To prevent hacking attacks
and data manipulation, we recommend that you restrict access to just the secure HTTPS
connection.
NOTICE
Using non-encrypted connections (HTTP)
When using the HTTP protocol, the login data is also sent unencrypted. Using the HTTP protocol
facilitates, among other things, hacking attacks and stolen passwords – and can result in data
manipulation by unauthorized persons.
• Limit access to secure HTTPS connections so that all data is transferred encrypted.
The configuration option provided to limit connections to just HTTPS can only be changed when
the web server is active:
• In the Startdrive configuration dialog
• In the web server prior to commissioning for the first time
• Using parameter p8986
