Log into LiteSpeed Web Admin via HTTPS?

[tina]

Is there a way to log into the LiteSpeed Web Admin using HTTPS? Even a self-signed certificate option will do.

It is a security issue to leave it at HTTP, since someone who intercepts the login details can gain access to the entire LiteSpeed server.

yes.

in lsws web admin console,
Web Console->Listeners->

SSL->fill "Private Key File"/"Certificate File" etc.
General->Secure:Yes

To secure admin web console:
1. set access allowed list to limit certain IP that can access under WebConsole->Admin->Security tab;
2. change the listener port to a different one from default value 7080;
3. do not use simple password;
4. use https for admin console.
