Changing WX Connection Settings 499

By default, 3WXM Services accepts certificates from WX switches regardless of whether they are generated by a certificate authority (CA) or they are self-signed certificates. When you disable this option, the Accept self-signed certificates option remains enabled.

6To prevent 3WXM Services from accepting self-signed certificates from the WX switches it monitors, click Accept self-signed certificates to disable the option.

When both the Accept all certificates and Accept self-signed certificates options are disabled, 3WXM Services accepts only-CA generated certificates.

7To specify a key store filename and a password to protect access to that file:

a Enter the filename in the File box.

b To change the file type for the key store file, select one of the following:

„PKCS12 Public-Key Cryptography Standard number 12, the standard format used by Unix machines.

„JKS — Java Key Store, a format used by Java platforms and applications.

cEnter the password in the Password box.

When both the Accept all certificates and Accept self-signed certificates options are disabled, and you specify a key store file, the 3WXM Services accepts a certificate from a WX switch only if the public key information for that certificate is in the key store file.
