Generate SSL Certificate for HTTPS
HTTPS is the standard for encrypted transmission of data between web browser
and web server. It relies on X.509 certificates and asymmetric crypto procedures. The
timeserver uses these certificates to authenticate itself to the client (web browser).
The first time a web browser connects to the HTTPS web server of your LANTIME,
you are asked to accept the certificate of the web server. To make sure that you are
talking to your known timeserver, check the certificate and accept it, if it matches the
one stored on the LANTIME. All further connections are comparing the certificate
with this one, which is saved in your web browser configuration. Afterwards you are
prompted to verify the certificate only when it changed.
By using the button ““Generate SSL certificate for HTTP““ you can create a new
certificate. Please enter your organisation, name, mail address and the location in the
upcoming form and press “Generate SSL certificate” to finally generate it.
After the successful generation of the certificate, it is shown to you:
It is also possible to upload your own HTTPS certification. If you upload a non valid
certification HTTPS will not work.
