Switched Rack PDU

USER’S GUIDE

®

You can use the APC Security Wizard, provided on the APC Rack Power Distribution Unit Utility CD that came with your Rack PDU, to create a certificate signing request to an external Certificate Authority, or if you do not want to use an existing Certificate Authority, you can create an APC root certificate to upload to a browser’s certificate store (cache). You can also use the Wizard to create a server certificate to upload to the Rack PDU.

See Creating and Installing Digital Certificates for a summary of how these certificates are used.

To create certificates and certificate requests, see Create a Root Certificate & Server Certificates and Create a Server Certificate

See also and Signing Request.

SSL also uses various algorithms and encryption ciphers to authenticate the server, encrypt data, and ensure the integrity of the data (i.e,. that it has not been intercepted and sent by another server).

See CipherSuite to select which authentication and encryption algorithms to use.
