6.Click on the checkbox next to SSL Enable to enable the use of SSL encryption and server certificate usage. Activating this feature requires the creation of a server certificate. Refer to the SSL Certificate Procedures section on page 61 for instructions on creating and requesting a server certificate for the target Master.

Before initially enabling the SSL feature on the Master, a self-generated certificate should first be installed. This initial certificate, along with the enabling of the SSL security feature (from the Enable Security page), allows users to create a secure connection to the Master so an encrypted CA server certificate can then be safely imported.

7.Click OK to accept and save the changes made on this tab to the Master. Clicking Cancel voids any changes made within this tab, disables the security configuration session, voids any changes made to the Master, and returns you to the empty Security tab.

If a SSL certificate has been previously placed on the target Master, after clicking OK, a server certificate security alert might appear to inform you of any issues with the existing certificate. Click Yes to accept the certificate conditions and continue accessing the target Master.

8.Successful incorporation of the changes to the Master’s security configurations results in an on-screen message "System Security successfully configured. SSL has been turned on".

A Group represents a logical collection of individual users. Any properties possessed by a group (ex: access rights, directory associations, etc.) are inherited by all members of that group.

The "administrator" group account cannot be deleted or modified.

Adding a Group and assigning their access rights

1.Click on the Security tab. By default this tab is blank until a security option is selected from the left of the browser window. Refer to the Security tab - Add Group page section on page 39 for more detailed descriptions on the security configuration options.

2.Click the Add Group link to populate the Security tab with the fields necessary for configuring a new group and assigning its associated access rights (FIG. 39).

FIG. 39 Security tab - showing the Add Group fields

3.Enter a unique alpha-numeric string (consisting of 4 - 20 characters) into the Group Name field. This string provides a unique name for the desired group. The word administrator cannot be used for a new group name since it already exists by default.
