    Specify web server information
  2. From the Web site list, select the website to access Trend Micro Apex Central.
  3. From the IP address list, select the FQDN/host name, IPv4, or IPv6 address you want to use for the Trend Micro Apex Central Management Console. This setting defines how the Trend Micro Apex Central communication system identifies your Trend Micro Apex Central server. The setup program attempts to detect both the server's fully qualified domain name (FQDN) and IP address and displays them in the appropriate field.
    If your server has more than one network interface card, or if you assign your server more than one FQDN, the names and IP addresses appear here. Choose the most appropriate address or name by selecting the corresponding option or item in the list.
    If you use the host name or FQDN to identify your server, make sure that this name can be resolved on the product computers; otherwise the products cannot communicate with the Trend Micro Apex Central server.
  4. From the Web access security level list, select one of the following security levels for Trend Micro Apex Central communication:
    • High - HTTPS only: All Trend Micro Apex Central communication uses HTTPS protocol. This ensures the most secure communication between Trend Micro Apex Central and other products.
    • Medium - HTTPS primary: If supported all Trend Micro Apex Central communication uses HTTPS protocol. If HTTPS is unavailable, agents use HTTP instead. This is the default setting when installing Trend Micro Apex Central.
    • Low - HTTP based: All Trend Micro Apex Central communication uses HTTP protocol. This is the least secure communication method between Trend Micro Apex Central and other products.
      Important
      Important
      Trend Micro does not recommend selecting this option.
      If you select the Low - HTTP based security level for Trend Micro Apex Central communication during installation, you must change the setting to the most secure level (HTTPS) after installation.
