SCEP HTTPS support
This feature enables you to deploy certificates with HTTPS Simple Certificate Enrollment Protocol (SCEP). The 802.1X authentication can
be executed with HTTPS SCEP certificate for ThinLinux user and ThinLinux machine. This feature can be set using UI and INI parameters.
To set up HTTPS support through UI:
1. Go to Settings > Management > SCEP > Add a new Certificate
2. Enter the following details:

• CA Distinguished Name—<SCEPDC>
3. Click Save.
4. Click Enroll and verify the SCEP certificate.
NOTE: SCEP certificates used for 802.1x authentication are displayed under System Settings > Certificates. If you want
to install the CA root certificate manually you must disable the auto-download of CA certificate. The certificate name
must be cacert.der and the certificate must be in the DER format only.
