Switched Rack PDU

7. The last screen verifies that the certificate has been created and
instructs you on the next task, to load the server certificate to the
Switched Rack PDU. It displays the location and name of the Server
Certificate, which has a .p15 file extension and contains the Rack PDU
private key and public root certificate.
Load the server certificate to the Rack PDU. Perform these steps:
1. On the Network menu of the Web interface of the Switched Rack
PDU, select the Web/SSL option.
2. In the SSL/TLS Server Certificate section of the page, browse to the
server certificate, the .p15 file you created in the procedure Create a
Root Certificate & Server Certificates. (The default is C:\Program
Files\American Power Conversion\APC Security Wizard.)
The information for every certificate must be unique. The
configuration of a server certificate cannot be the same as
the configuration of the CA root certificate. (The expiration
date is not considered part of the unique configuration; some
other configuration information must also differ.)
Alternatively, you can use FTP or Secure CoPy (SCP) to transfer
the server certificate to the Rack PDU. If you use FTP or SCP for
the transfer, you must specify the correct location, \sec, on the
Rack PDU. For SCP, the command to transfer a certificate named
cert.p15 to a Rack PDU with an IP address of 156.205.6.185
would be:
scp cert.p15 apc@156.205.6.185:\sec\cert.p15
