Machine Digital Certificate Management & Trusted Certificate Authorities

Network Accounting configuration.

To enable SSL on a machine, it needs to have its own digital certificate. When clients make a request to the device, it exports the certificate to provide an encrypted channel.

There are 2 options available to obtain a server certificate for the machine:

Have the machine create a Self Signed Certificate

Create a request to have a Certificate Authority sign a certificate that can be uploaded to the machine.

A self-signed certificate means that the machine signs its own certificate as trusted and creates the public key for the certificate to be used in SSL encryption.

A certificate from a Certificate Authority or a server functioning as a Certificate Authority (for example Windows 2000 running Certificate Services) can be uploaded to the machine.

NOTE: A separate request is required for each Xerox machine.

Information Checklist

Ensure that the machine is configured with the following items:

1.An IP Address or Host Name must be configured on the machine.

2.DNS must be enabled and configured on the machine.

NOTE: This is used to set the start time for self signed certificates.
