You can change the HTTPS protocol settings and the certificate to use on the Web Based Management

screen, by clicking Network, Protocol and then HTTP Server Settings.

• You must also install the certificate you have installed to the machine onto your computer. See Installing

“https://Common Name/” into your browser. Where “Common Name” is the Common Name that you

assigned for the certificate, such as an IP address, node name or domain name. For how to assign a

Common Name for the certificate, see Using Certificates for device security uu page 2.)
