server when establishing connection.
Once this is done, click on the button Generate CSR which will initiate the Certificate
Signing Request generation. The CSR can be downloaded to your administration machine
with the Download button.
Send the saved CSR string to a Certification Authority (CA) for certification. You will get the
new certificate from the CA after a more or less complicated traditional authentication
process (depending on the CA).
Upload the certificate to the console server using the Upload button as shown below.
After completing these steps, the console server has its own certificate that is used for identifying the
console server to its users.
Note You can find information on issuing certificates and configuring HTTPS from the command line in
Chapter 15.
