KLE User Guide R1.2

After all, to run the small java program, you don’t have to actually save the

Kviewer.jar

to your local hard

disk, since it is small (only 70 KB), you can choose to open it directly wile download is completed.

On some client platforms such as Linux, after you have installed the JRE on your client platform, you

have to set the path information in order for the client system to know where the Java compiler program is.

3.3 Import certificates to KLE viewer on the

client computer

If you will be using only the non-PKI authenticated viewer connections to KLE (such as Level 1 –

No

encryption and No Authentication

, and Level 2 –

128-bit SSL encryption and only server authentication by

client

), you are not obliged to use or import any certificates. If so you can skip this section and proceed to the

next.

To make full PKI authenticated viewer connection with KLE, you need to import client

certificates to the Win32 viewer and Java Viewer on the client computer.

The KLE is already preinstalled with a default set of certificates. You can use the

default client certificates provided on CD ROM. However, it also allows you to use
your own set of certificates.

Note that if you intend to use your own set of certificates instead of the default set of certificates, you

should not only import the client certificates to the win32 viewer/java viewer on remote client computer, but
you should also import the root certificate, server certificate and the server private key to the KLE. To
import certificates to the KLE, please go to the Security page of the KLE Web Management to upload your
own set of certificates. For details, please refer to

Section 4.16, Security – Certificate Installation, Viewer

Encryption and Password Policies

.


Generally, the naming requirements of these certificates are as follows:

[Certificates and private key for KLE to authenticate viewer user logins]

root.crt - KLE root certificate, mandatory file name

server.crt

-

KLE server certificate, mandatory file name
