CLI zmtlsctl to set Web Server Mode
zmtlsctl
This command is used to set the Web server zimbraMailMode to the different communication protocol options. All modes use SSL encryption for back-end administrative traffic & the admin console.
The webserver has to be stopped and restarted for the change to take effect. Though a full zmcontrol stop/start certainly can't hurt.
Syntax
zmtlsctl [mode]
mode choices:
http - http only, the user would browse to http://zimbra.domain.com
https - https only, the user would browse to https://zimbra.domain.com http:// is denied (A few 4.5.x releases redirected if they visited http:// - this however was not a mode yet, just behavior.)
mixed - If the user goes to http:// it will redirect to https:// for the login only, then will revert to http:// for normal session traffic. If they browse to https:// then they will stay https://
both - A user can go to http:// or https:// and will keep that mode for their entire session
-On older versions there were some quirks with 'both' mode; fine from 4.5.2 to 4.5.5? but new issue appeared bug 19636
-As a quick fix, when 'both' was selected, it defaulted to 'mixed' bug 5594
-As of 5.0.5+ bug 5594 is now resolved
Beginning with ZCS 5.0:
redirect - like mixed, if the user goes to http:// it will redirect to https:// but they will stay https:// for their entire session.
