By default the Configuration Tool is accessible on the dedicated port 7766 (HTTP). For example : http://172.16.1.130:7766

HTTPS

The UI can be now protected by an HTTPS access

The file /etc/shinken/synchronizer.cfg has new parameters.
to activate the HTTPS:
- http_use_ssl=0
  - by default it is set to 0.
  - Set it to 1 to activate.
Set certificates by updating the 2 following parameters:
- http_ssl_cert=/etc/shinken/certs/server.cert
- http_ssl_key=/etc/shinken/certs/server.key

Accessing to the UI will still use the default dedicated port 7766 (but in HTTPS).
