Capabilities:
Generated by the Web Manager tool, issues for 365 days.
Can be extended for an unlimited period.
Can run WebRTC testing without a fully-featured certificate.
Details:
Manual installation of root certificate is required for all client devices where HTTPS and WSS will be
used.
The process of root certificate installation is different for Chrome and Firefox.
Fully-Featured Certificate
This type of certificate should be bought in the Certification Centre (CC). Fully-featured certificate
doesn’t require any additional operations with client devices, since browser trusts the publisher who
signed it.
Settings Revision and Adoption
Web server uses HTTPS settings at launch. Wrong port and certificate data can cause server error and
administrator will lose access to the Web Manager tool. Therefore, it is highly important to make
thorough check of the preset parameters.
The best way to check the parameters is to launch a web server copy using specified HTTPS settings
with further analysis of launch results (currently the installation wizard works in this way when choosing
a web server port). In the Web Manager tool project PHP operates as an Apache module, which doesn’t
allow launching a web server copy from PHP script as it’s not possible to launch a new control process
from an already existing one. Therefore, at this stage it is necessary to check the entered data
according the following steps:
Check availability of a specified HTTPS port for using it with Apache server.
Check the file specified as certificate for compliance with X.509 format by means of openssl library.
Check the file specified as private key by means of openssl library.
Check the private key and certificate compliance by means of openssl library.
Self-Signed Certificate
If the certificate has already been issued, this section will contain basic parameters of root certificate
and certificate which will be used by the web server and TCS:
Administrator can download a root certificate file for sharing among client devices via the link
Download ca.crt
