You need to use https instead of http. If you dont want to spent money for certificates and want to have other than self-signed one, you can use certbot to generate yourself certificates that are free. (see https://certbot.eff.org) Frankly, for your case, its local network and it shouldn't work, but for others, here are instructions for linux (tested on ubuntu 14 lts)

  1. login to your ssh as root or sudoer, you may want to go to any choosen directory that you have permissions to and type following:

    wget https://dl.eff.org/certbot-auto

    chmod a+x ./certbot-auto

(if anybody keen on making posts could figure why that above wont show up as code and fix it...)

from now on you can automatically generate signed certifiactes for 90 days using

./certbot-auto

every 90 day you may want to run

./certbot-auto renew
