Using Apache’s REDIRECT module is an easy and secure way to require SSL to be used on your website.
What is SSL?
SSL (Secure Sockets Layer) is the standard security technology for establishing an encrypted link between a web server and a browser. This link ensures that all data passed between the web server and browsers remain private.
Why use Apache REDIRECT?
Apache redirect allows direct web traffic to HTTPS. Users will be directed without having to type in HTTPS.
ServerName 3dspace.mylocal.com
