Chapter 8 Diagnosing Problems With CiscoWorks Server
Frequently Asked Questions
Q.
When I invoke CiscoWorks, I'm unable to get to the login page directly.
Instead, I'm facing a security alert related to the site's security certificate. It
asks for my input to proceed further. Why?
A.
CiscoWorks does not have any control over this behavior. This is an expected
browser behavior (Microsoft Internet Explorer or Netscape Navigator), to
ensure proper security.
This appears if one of the when one of the following conditions is not satisfied:
–
The certificate of the server (CiscoWorks Server in this case) must be
issued by trusted Certificate Authority.
–
The date of the certificate must be valid. (Each certificate is assigned a
validity period. It can range from 21 days to 5 years).
–
The name of the certificate and name of the page (or the name typed in
the address bar of the browser) are the same.
To view the certificate information:
•
Click View Certificate, in the alert box for Internet Explorer.
•
Click Examine Certificate in the alert box for Netscape Navigator.
The server should be invoked with the name same as the Issued to' field of the
certificate.
To install the certificate in Internet Explorer:
Step 1
Click View Certificate in the alert box.
The Certificate dialog box displays the Certificate information.
Step 2
Click Install Certificate.
For Netscape Navigator, you may select the Accept this Certificate Permanently
radio button in the security alert dialog box.
