How to Remove SSL Authentication

Secure Sockets Layer, or SSL, authentication is a feature of Microsoft Windows Server's Internet Information Services, or IIS, software application. Sites in IIS can be configured to serve documents securely using encryption based on the SSL protocol to help protective sensitive data. You can remove SSL authentication requirements from your site by disabling the SSL authentication protocol from the system's command line.
