Creating an SSL Security Certificate
Enabling SSL automatically creates a security certificate on the switch. The
security certificate is required to establish an SSL connection with a management
application such as Enterprise Fabric Suite 2007. The certificate is valid 24 hours
before the certificate creation date and expires 365 days after the creation date.
Should the original certificate become invalid, enter the Create Certificate
command to create a new one as shown in the following example:
SANbox (admin) #> create certificate
The current date and time is day mon date hh:mm:ss UTC yyyy.
This is the time used to stamp onto the certificate.
Is the date and time correct? (y/n): [n] y
Certificate generation successful.
To ensure the creation of a valid certificate, be sure that the switch and the
workstation time and date are the same. Refer to “Setting the Date and Time” on
page 5-17.
