11501s and SSL termination

[dagates]

We have several 11501. Some of them have a module CSS501-SSL-INT listed when a show module is issued. Others don't have this module listed and a search on CCO for "CSS501-SSL-INT" came up blank. Is this module required to terminate SSL on a 501? Can it be added? Is this the only thing required to terminate SSL?

Yes, you need this module to terminate SSL traffic on the CSS.

No, this module can't be added to a CSS11501.

You can buy such module for CSS11503 or CSS11506 but not for the CSS11501.

The 11501 with SSL module is a CSS11501S.

Once you have the module you nede to install at least 1 key and 1 certificate and then configure the module.

Here is the configuration guide should you need it.
