NOTE: If the certificate is removed from your browser, if you have upgraded the firmware, or if iLO is rebooted, the security alert message will be displayed again. Unless a certificate generated by a CA has been imported into iLO, iLO will generate a self-signed certificate each time it reboots. This self-signed certificate is not as secure as a certificate generated by a CA. (Refer to "Certificates (on page 140)" to import a certificate generated by a CA.) HP does not recommend using a self-signed certificate, because this certificate will change everytime iLO reboots. Also, some browsers do not allow easy editing of previously stored certificates and may cause problems when attempting to store a different certificate with the same name.
