Creating a Blacklist

In some situations, it may be necessary to block a device that was previously authorized to
connect. The device presents valid credentials (i.e., a certificate signed by the trusted CA) but it
should not be allowed to connect anymore.
This can be done in the Blocked Device list in the

Authentication

tab in DashBoard, show in

Figure 16.

Devices are identified by the

Common Name (CN)

field in the certificate tied to the RSA or

ECDSA keys. The Common Name is set as follows:
