System Management Server uses a security certificate to ensure that communication between System Platform nodes is encrypted. The certificates tab includes the following configurable fields:
-
Certificate Source: Select either Automatically Generated (default), or Provided by IT. If your IT department is providing the certificate, press the Import button and navigate to the certificate file. For more information, see Certificates Tab.
-
Certificate: The certificate name is displayed. If you imported a certificate, you view it by pressing the Details button. The certificate is periodically renewed through an automatic update process, both on the server node and on remote nodes.
To import a signed CA certificate, select the Provided by IT option from the Certificate Source drop down menu. The Import Certificate dialog window opens.
