-----END CERTIFICATE-----
1. Copy and paste the text between the “Begin Certificate” and “End Certificate”
delimiters to a text file using a text editor such as Notepad.
2. Save the file on your hard drive and name the file
srv_cert.cer
.
3. On the Viewport
File Transfer
menu, point to
Generate Certificate Request
and then click
Upload Signed Certificate
.
4. Locate the directory where you saved srv_cert.cer and click
Open
. This will
upload the signed certificate to the \SYS directory of the 2-Series processor in
DER format, i.e., \\sys\srv_cert.der.
Upload Root Certificate
Along with the signed certificate, all CAs also electronically give access to what is
called a
root certificate
. A root certificate is a document that validates the CA itself.
At the time of sending the signed certificate, most CAs provide a URL to where their
root certificate is stored. The buyer of the signed certificate may then download the
root certificate onto the server. Uploading the root certificate is identical to the
procedure for uploading signed certificate. The only difference is that the root
certificate is stored as:
\\sys\ rootCA_cert.der
.
Enable SSL with CA-signed certificate
1. On the Viewport
Functions
menu, click
Set Control System IP
Information
.
2. Click
the
Advanced
button and click
Enable SSL
.
3. Select
CA-signed
and click
OK
to reboot the control system.
The processor is now SSL protected with a CA-signed certificate. Any Web browser
attempting to communicate with the server will display a locked icon on their screen.
Ethernet Touchpanels
The Crestron TPS-ENET card (shown in the figure) is a Network Interface Card for
TPS touchpanels. The card can operate
at speeds of 10/100BaseT, and provides
half and full duplex capabilities. The
TPS-ENET card supports DHCP in
addition to static IP addressing.
As with other Crestron units, you use
the Viewport to access the panel’s
console and set its IP information. The
first time you connect to the touchpanel, the connection type must be either Cresnet or
RS-232. The exact procedure for establishing communication is described in the
documentation for the TPS-ENET card.
Once you connect to the panel, you can set the IP information by typing console
commands at the Viewport command prompt.
