Managing multiple certificates

6

This multiple certificate feature allows you to manage each certificate that you have installed using Web
Based Management. After installing certificates, you can view which certificates are installed from the
Certificate page and then view each certificate's content, delete or export the certificate. For information on
how to access the Certificate page, see Configure certificate using Web Based Management uu page 65.
The Brother machine allows you to store up to four self-signed certificates or up to four certificates issued by
a CA. You can use the stored certificates for using the HTTPS/IPPS protocol or IEEE 802.1x authentication.
You can also store up to six CA certificates for using IEEE 802.1x authentication and SSL/TLS for
SMTP/POP3.
We recommend that you keep some free spaces when storing self-signed certificates and certificates issued
by a CA. These free spaces will be necessary when you replace an expired certificate with a new one. When
replacing the certificate, first configure your settings by storing the new certificate in the free space, make
sure that the machine is working correctly, and then delete the expired certificate. This procedure can help to
prevent a certificate that is need from being deleted by mistake.

Note

When you use HTTPS/IPPS protocol or IEEE 802.1x, you must choose which certificate you are using.
