Managing Certificates
Using Custom Certificates
You can now transfer custom-defined certificates to the iDRAC6, and create a
unique certificate based on the service tag of your system to ensure enhanced
security. You can also have the factory preset the system with the certificate of
your choice using the Custom Factory Install (CFI) process available from
Dell.
