Installing a Security Certificate
Tieline codecs support the installation of TLS/SSL (hereafter referred to as SSL) security certificates
to deliver an additional layer of security when connecting to IP networks. The digital SSL security
certificate authenticates the codec and provides more secure encrypted HTTPS browser
connections. The codec supports installing a private key as well as an intermediate and SSL
certificate.
