Certificates
To implement HTTPS on the TC620-PID, you need to install an HTTPS certificate. You can use a
self-signed certificate or one created by a Certificate Authority (CA). CA-issued certificates
provide a higher level of security and inspire more trust than self-signed certificates. Self-signed
certificates are often installed for test purposes or as a temporary solution until a CA-issued
certificate has been obtained.
17.2 Certificate/Request information
In the Certificate/Request Information section, you can provide the information required for a
self-signed certificate or a CA-issued certificate.
Item Description
Country code (2
letters) The country where the certificate is to be used. Default: "NL".
State/Province The administrative region in which the organisation is located.
City/Location City/Location where the organisation is based.
Organisation The name of the organisation which owns the entity specified in the "Common
name" text box.
Validity (days) The valid period (in days) of the certificate. Default: 365.
Common name The name of the entity to be certified by the certificate.
E-mail address The contact e-mail address
Organisation unit The name of the organisational unit which owns the entity specified in the
"Common name" text box.
Important:
Make sure that the Common name you specify when you generate a security
certificate matches the URL that is used to access the webpages of the TC620-PID. Generally,
this is the IP address of the unit.
