Certificate
Certificates are important in the communication process. The certificate signed by a trusted Certificate Authority
(CA), ensures that the certificate holder is really who he claims to be. Without a trusted signed certificate,
data may be encrypted, however, the party you are communicating with may not be the one whom you think.
A list of certificates with the certificate details are displayed on this page. You can export a Self signed, local,
and CSR certificate. Or, you can import a CA, Local, or PKCS#12 certificate. You can also import a certificate
file (from PC/USB) to a new certificate.
If a device certificate is imported, it replaces its corresponding CSR certificate.
On Certificate Table, the certificates that are associated to the router are displayed. You can you delete, export,
view the details, or import a certificate that is listed in the Certificate Table.
