RackSwitch G8000 Application Guide

Accessing the BBI via HTTPS requires a SSL certificate to be used during the key exchange. A default certificate is created the first time HTTPS is enabled, but you can import a new cer- tificate that defines the information you want to be used. Use the following command to import the SSL certificate:

RS G8000 (config)# access https import-certificate

The certificate is saved to Flash memory for use once the switch is rebooted.

When a client (e.g. web browser) connects to the switch, the client is asked to accept the certif- icate and verify that the fields match what is expected. Once BBI access is granted to the client, the BBI can be used as described in the RackSwitch G8000 BBI Quick Guide.

The BBI is organized at a high level as follows:

Context buttons – These buttons allow you to select the type of action you wish to perform. The Configuration button provides access to the configuration elements for the entire switch.
