Managing the Firebox X Edge or SOHO Device
Troubleshooting ideas
Use these steps to troubleshoot Netscape certificates:
•Make sure that you have the strong encryption
•Make sure that you have the correct password for the .p12 (or .pfx) file. This must be the configuration passphrase of the Firebox DVCP server.
•Make sure that the certificate is not zero (0) length. If it is, erase the file and disconnect from System Manager. Open System Manager and make the certificate again.
Managing the Firebox X Edge or SOHO Device
After you import the correct certificate in your browser, you can start to use System Manager to connect to a Firebox® X Edge, SOHO 6, or SOHO 5 to monitor and configure it.
You cannot use the same browser window to connect to the Edge or SOHO management pages as the one you use to configure access to the Certificate Authority. You must close the Certificate Authority window before you try to configure an Edge or SOHO from System Manager.
Refer to your Firebox X Edge or Firebox SOHO User Guide for more detailed information about configur- ing these devices.
From System Manager:
1Select the Edge or SOHO device. Then click Policy Manager.
The Client Authentication dialog box appears.
2Select the certificate for this device. Click OK.
3Click OK.
