REPLACING THE
DEFAULT SECURE-SITE
CERTIFICATE
Use the Security > HTTPS (Copy Certificate) page to replace the default
secure-site certificate.
When you log onto the web interface using HTTPS (for secure access), a
Secure Sockets Layer (SSL) certificate appears for the switch. By default,
the certificate that the web browser displays will be associated with a
warning that the site is not recognized as a secure site. This is because the
certificate has not been signed by an approved certification authority. If
you want this warning to be replaced by a message confirming that the
connection to the switch is secure, you must obtain a unique certificate and
a private key and password from a recognized certification authority.
