Removing the TLS profile assignment from the web management service

How to use the CLI to remove the assigned TLS profile for the web management service.

About this task

If you inadvertently saved the configuration and the assigned TLS profile is incorrectly configured, no one can access a web management interface. Because you cannot access a web management interface, you must use the serial connection or an SSH session.

Procedure

  1. Access the CLI from an SSH client or serial connection.
  2. From the CLI, enter the following command sequence to remove the TLS server profile. 
    configure terminal
web-mgmt
no ssl-server
exit
write memory
  3. Enter y to save the configuration.
  4. Although the web management service is set to the internal TLS server profile, enter exit to close the CLI session.

Results

If you defined the same TLS server profile for the web B2B viewer management service or XML management interface, you can use a web management interface to assign the correct TLS server profile to these management services.
