Before 3WXM can communicate with the WX switch or monitoring
service over a secure HTTPS connection, you must specify how to deal
with the certificate required for secure communication.
The options you select in this dialog box apply to all HTTPS connections
with the 3WXM client. For example, the 3WXM client also checks the
validity of certificates presented by the monitoring service, and the
settings you select in this dialog affect those connections too.
1 If you do not want to see the Certificate Check dialog box each time
3WXM connects to a WX switch, select one of the following options:
■
Always accept self-signed certificates. — Use this option to
configure the 3WXM client to always accept a self-signed certificate
from the 3WXM monitoring service and from WX switches.
■
Install this certificate to validate future connections. — Use this
option to accept the certificate and consider the certificate to be valid
for future connections.
When you use this option, the Certificate Check dialog box is not shown
again for the certificate, even if the certificate becomes out of date.
