All
Use only “one
level” certificates
Root certificates of more than one level (a certificate from somebody who
got their CA from Verisign, for example) will fail. Certificates must be
either root or self-signed.
All
Watch timestamp
on certificates
If an SM’s certific ate has a “Valid Fro m” date and time tha t is after the
current system time, the SM will not authenticate onto the system. Either
create certificates with a “Valid From” date and time that is before any
possible system time, or ensure the AP is configured to use a Network
Time Protocol (NTP) server, such as the one in the CMMmicro or CMM4,
and the certificates have a “Valid From” date and time before the current
time. The initial system time on Canopy, with no NTP or GPS source, is
01/01/2001 00:00:00.

Browser-specific
GUI behavior
(Firefox) (15713)
The scenario is you are using a browser to view a web page on a radio
and then use SNMP to make configuration changes to parameters shown
on the page. With some browsers, the SNMP-made changes are shown
after a manual or automatic page refresh. With Firefox, a manual pa ge
change (go to another tab a nd come back) is req uired.
