Disable Enable SSL encryption for the PRTG website

Please can you tell me where to find the option to disable this message? We use PRTG internally and there is no reason to use SSL, plus if we do we are then presented with the lack of SSL cert from within the browser.

Hello there,

It can be disabled with a change in the registry on the PRTG Server:

  • HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Wow6432Node\Paessler\PRTG Network Monitor\Server\Webserver
  • Add DWORD (in case it does not already exist): showsslnagscreen
  • Set Value to 0, this will disable the SSL warning.
  • Restart service PRTG Core Server for the change to become effective.

Kind regards,

Erhard

Thank you Erhard, however this does not work. The DWORD is already there and when changed to "0" and the PRTG Core Service is restarted, it reverts back to "1".

Ah, ok, stop the service first, then apply the change, this should work then.
