Secure Sockets Layer (SSL) Certificates
Extron control processors ship with factory-installed SSL certificates created by Extron. If
you want or are required to use a different SSL certificate at your installation site, then you
can use system utilities in the Toolbelt software to change the SSL certificate at any time.
The
Toolbelt Help File provides instructions on how to apply an SSL certificate to a control
processor.
NOTES:
• You must run Toolbelt as an administrator.
• Some certificates require a passphrase that is created when the certificate is
created. If a passphrase is required, you must enter that passphrase before
uploading and applying the certificate.
IP Link Pro control processors support standard OpenSSL certificate encodings such
as .pem (Privacy-enhanced Electronic Mail) and .der file types. PEM file types are ASCII
encoded and are the required format for uploading to the control processor. DER
(Distinguished Encoding Rules) file types are binary encoded and can typically have several
file extension variations, such as .crt and .cer. There are many standard tools that can
convert from DER to PEM file encodings if needed.
NOTE: A DER format file must be converted to PEM encoding before uploading it to the
control processor.
To properly create the certificate for uploading to Extron control processors, ensure that the
certificate file meets the following requirements:
• contains X.509 certificate information
• contains public and private keys
• uses PEM encoding
NOTE: ITU-T standard X.509 covers aspects of public key encryption, digital
cryptography, certificates, and validation.
Contact your IT administrator for more information on what tools and policies are required to
obtain or create the SSL certificate and, if necessary, the corresponding passphrase.
