ssl
certificate

Add, replace, or remove a security certificate.

Status

:

Not installed

: A certificate is not installed, or was installed by FTP or SCP to an

incorrect location. Using

Add or Replace Certificate File

installs the certificate to

the correct location,

/ssl

on the Rack PDU.

Generating

: The Rack PDU is generating a certificate because no valid certificate

was found.

Loading

: A certificate is being activated on the Rack PDU.

Valid certificate

: A valid certificate was installed or was generated by the Rack

PDU. Click on this link to view the contents of the certificate.

If you install an invalid certificate, or if no certificate is loaded when you
enable SSL, the Management Card generates a default certificate, a process
which delays access to the interface for up to one minute.

You can use the

default certificate for basic encryption-based security, but a security alert message
displays whenever you log on.

Add or Replace Certificate File

: Enter or browse to the certificate file created with

the Security Wizard.

See “Creating and Installing Digital Certificates” in

Appendix B: Security Handbook

to choose a method for using digital certificates created by the Security Wizard or
generated by the Rack PDU.

Remove

: Delete the current certificate.
