SSL Settings
Secure Sockets Layer (SSL) is a protocol for managing the security of data
transmission over the Internet. It provides encryption, authentication, and message
integrity services. SSL is widely used for secure communication to a web server.
Certificate/Private key combinations can be obtained from an external Certificate
Authority (CA) and downloaded into the unit. Self-signed certificates with associated
private key can be generated by the device server itself.
For more information regarding Certificates and how to obtain them see
