Page 88

Secure Sockets Layer (SSL) is widely used to create a secure communication channel between web browsers and servers. Set up SSL for more secure connections to your Unified WIM and Unified EIM installation by following the procedures described in this chapter.

Installing a security certificate

This section explains the procedures that you must perform to acquire a certificate request. These include:

Generating a security certificate request

Submitting the certificate request

Installing the certificate on the Web Server

Generating a security certificate request

This procedure creates a new certificate request, which is then sent to a Certificate Authority (CA) for processing. If successful, the CA will send back a file containing a validated certificate.

Important: You need to generate the security certificate request for the Default web site and the

Messaging Applet web site.

To generate a certificate request:

1.Go to Start > Settings > Control Panel > Administrative Tools > Internet Information Services.

2.Browse to Web Sites > Web_Site_Name.

3.Right-click Web_Site_Name and click Properties.

4.In the Default Web Site Properties window, go to the Directory Security tab.

5.In the Secure communications section, click the Server Certificate button to launch the Web Server Certificate Wizard.
