IT Analytics Data Collector Installation and Configuration Guide for Cohesity NetBackup

Step-2: HTTPS requirement

The default IT Analytics configuration is HTTP Port 80 between the Data Collector and the Portal and between the User's Web Browser to the Portal. If HTTP is not acceptable in your environment, you will need to configure HTTPS before proceeding. Once the Data Collection policy configuration is complete, continue to Step 3.

If HTTP is acceptable, continue with step 3.

See “Configure SSL”.
