31 SSL certificate configuration

You must have the appropriate user privileges to access SSL Certificates.

NOTE

SSL Certificates does not generate signed certificates and keys. You can generate a certificate signing request (CSR), but the signed certificates and keys managed by SSL Certificates must be signed by a certificate authority (CA) and must be stored in an accessible location. Certificates and keys are added to SSL Certificates by cutting and pasting the certificate and key file contents obtained from a certificate authority into SSL Certificates.

You can configure SSL certificates preferences from the Options dialog box. For step-by-step instructions, refer to “Configuring SSL certificates preferences” on page 164.

You can import the SSL certificates and keys during discovery from SSL-capable products on the Discover Setup - IP dialog box. For step-by-step instructions, refer to “Defining global setting preferences” on page 60.
