When HTTPS management is enabled on the WAN interface, what happens to the HTTP to HTTPS redirect rule?

When HTTPS management is enabled on the WAN interface, the HTTP to HTTPS redirect rule is automatically enabled to ensure secure communication. This automatic configuration allows any incoming HTTP requests to be redirected seamlessly to HTTPS, promoting better security for data transmission. By enforcing this redirect, the system helps prevent any potential exposure of sensitive information that could occur if HTTP were used instead.

This mechanism enhances the security posture by ensuring that all management traffic is encrypted and helps enforce best practices for secure management. Although users might think that configuring a redirect yourself would be necessary, the system manages this process automatically to enforce a more secure communication environment without requiring manual intervention.
