Generating the Key and Certificate for Network
Communication
3S1Y-07C
A key and certificate can be generated with the machine when it is required for encrypted communication via
Transport Layer Security (TLS). You can use TLS when accessing the machine via the Remote UI. Self-signed certificates
are used with the key and certificate generated in "Network Communication."
● If you want to use a server certificate that has a CA signature, you can generate a CSR together with a key
instead of a certificate. Generating a Key and Certificate Signing Request (CSR)(P. 395)
● For more information about the basic operations to be performed when setting the machine from the
Remote UI, see Setting Up Menu Options from Remote UI(P. 438) .
