1.2 Features of HTTP Server
HTTP Server is developed based on Apache HTTP Server, which owns a large share of the global server market. This manual describes the features supported by HTTP Server.
The main features of HTTP Server are as follows:
-
User authentication and access security
-
Virtual host
-
Reverse proxy
-
Flow-restricting functionality
-
Valid period settings functionality
-
Header customization functionality
-
Executing CGI programs
-
Displaying directory index
-
Image map
Additionally, HTTP Server uses OpenSSL, which has a large share of the market as an SSL/TLS library, and implements Secure Sockets Layer (SSL). Therefore, HTTP Server can prevent data tampering, spoofing (spoofing of the server from the client perspective, and spoofing of the client from the server perspective), and tapping, and ensures the security of information.
