=== SSL Mode
Each realm has an SSL Mode associated with it. The SSL Mode defines the SSL/HTTPS requirements for interacting with the realm.
Browsers and applications that interact with the realm must honor the SSL/HTTPS requirements defined by the SSL Mode or they
will not be allowed to interact with the server.

WARNING: {project_name} is not set up by default to handle SSL/HTTPS.
It is highly recommended that you either enable SSL on the {project_name} server itself or on a reverse proxy in front of the {project_name} server.
