SSL Certificates

The Dominion KX II uses the Secure Socket Layer (SSL) protocol for any
encrypted network traffic between itself and a connected client. When
establishing a connection, the Dominion KX II has to identify itself to a
client using a cryptographic certificate.

It is possible to generate a Certificate Signing Request (CSR) and install
a certificate signed by the Certificate Authority (CA) on the Dominion KX
II. The CA verifies the identify of the originator of the CSR. The CA then
returns a certificate containing its signature to the originator. The
certificate, bearing the signature of the well-known CA, is used to vouch
for the identity of the presenter of the certificate.

To create and install a SSL certificate:

1. Select Security > SSL Certificate.
