Configuring HTTPS

Figure 179: Configuring HTTPS
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.
Caution:
For maximum security, we recommend you obtain a unique Secure
Sockets Layer certificate at the earliest opportunity. This is because the default
certificate for the switch is not unique to the hardware you have purchased.
When you have obtained these, place them on your TFTP server and transfer them
to the switch to replace the default (unrecognized) certificate with an authorized
one.
Note:
The switch must be reset for the new certificate to be activated. To reset the
switch, see “Resetting the System” on page 91 or type “reload” at the command
prompt: Console#reload
Parameters
These parameters are displayed:
◆ TFTP Server IP Address
– IP address of TFTP server which contains the
certificate file.
◆ Certificate Source File Name
– Name of certificate file stored on the TFTP
server.
◆ Private Key Source File Name
– Name of private key file stored on the TFTP
server.
