9.3 SSL Certificate
The
console server
uses the Secure Socket Layer (SSL) protocol for encrypted network traffic between
itself and a connected user. When establishing the connection, the
console server
has to expose its
identity to the user’s browser using a cryptographic certificate. The default certificate that comes with
the
console server
device upon delivery is for testing purposes only.
The System Administrator should not rely on the default certificate as the
secured global access mechanism for use through Internet.
Activate your preferred browser and enter
https://
IP address.
Your browser may respond with a
message that verifies the security certificate is valid but notes that it is not necessarily verified
by a certifying authority. To proceed, you need to click
yes
if you are using Internet Explorer or
select
accept this certificate permanently
(or
temporarily
) if you are using Mozilla Firefox.
You will then be prompted for the
Administrator
account and password as normal.
We recommend that you generate and install a new base64 X.509 certificate that is unique for a
particular
console server
.
To do this, the
console server
must be enabled to generate a new cryptographic key and the associated
Certificate Signing Request (CSR) that needs to be certified by a Certification Authority (CA). A
certification authority verifies that you are the person who you claim you are, and signs and issues a SSL
certificate to you. To create and install a SSL certificate for the
console server
