ForceHTTPSLogin
Learn how to use the ForceHTTPSLogin config.txt directive to redirect users to a secure login page in EZproxy.
To increase the security of logins, we have enabled the ForceHTTPSLogin option by default for all libraries, starting with EZproxy v7.0.
By including ForceHTTPSLogin in your config.txt, your users will be redirected to a secure login page whenever they try to access EZproxy resources. This security configuration will keep your server and users' credentials secure.
ForceHTTPSLogin is a position-independent config.txt that presents the login page with a secure https protocol at the beginning of the URL. To use this directive, you must configure your EZproxy to use a secure certificate encrypted with SSL (Secure Socket Layer) technology. For details about SSL Configuration, see SSL Configuration.
