Setting Up a Digital Certificate
The purpose of an X.509 digital certificate is to ensure that both parties in an SSL
connection are who they say they are. To obtain a certificate for the ePDU, you must
create a Certificate Signing Request (CSR) and submit it to a certificate authority (CA).
Once the CA has processed the information in the CSR, it will provide you with a
certificate, which you must install on the ePDU.
NOTE See Forcing HTTPS Encryption" on page 39 for instructions on forcing users to employ SSL when
connecting to the ePDU.
Creating a Certificate Signing Request
To create a CSR:
1. Select Device Settings, and then select Certificate. The first page of the SSL
Server Certificate Management page displays (see Figure 47).
