A note on SSL certificates and security
The SSL protocol uses encryption to secure the data
between two devices on the same network. This is
common on websites, where a website will send an SSL
certificate to a user's internet browser.
This certificate will have been signed by a trusted
provider, automatically recognised and then verified by
your browser, over the internet.
A similar principle is used to validate the identity of IoT
(Internet of Things) devices, such as the PF7+ and the
computer it is connecting to.
The connection between the PF7+ and the computer is a
peer-to-peer connection over Ethernet, with no cloud
based, web based or other external aspects. The
SSL certificate cannot be generated automatically.
You will need to self-generate a certificate as described on
the following pages and install it onto your PC for the
connection between the PF7+ and your browser to become
trusted.
