Reset Certificates

This menu option enables you to clear the certificate sent by the DSView 3 software to the

DSR1024 switch.

When a DSR10241024 switch is added to a server running DSView 3 software, a certificate
automatically downloads from that server to the DSR1024 switch. That certificate is replicated
across all servers running DSView 3 software operating in a predefined system. Thereafter, any of
the servers in that system will be able to communicate with the

DSR1024 switch.
