6.6.1 Creating ZIP archive with existing certificates
Prerequisites:
·
IDS NXT Camera
·
SSL certificates in pem format
Creating the ZIP archive
1. Create a directory named "myCertificates" where you place your SSL certificate files.
2. Create the file "ssl.json" in the "myCertificates" folder.
3. Open the “ssl.json” file in a text editor. The chain-files must be sorted in the following order from "Leaf" to
"Root".
{
"issuer": "YourOrganisation",
"key-file": "server.key",
"cert-file": "server.cert",
"chain-files":
[
"server.cert", "ca.cert"
]
}
Under "chain-files", you must enter all certificates of the chain, i.e. also the certificate of the
server itself.
Make sure to write the file names correctly, as no further verification takes place.
