3. Generate the HTTPS certificate.
Accessing the BBI via HTTPS requires that you generate a certificate to be used during the key
exchange. A default certificate is created the first time HTTPS is enabled, but you can create a new
certificate defining the information you want to be used in the various fields.
4. Save the HTTPS certificate.
The certificate is valid only until the switch is rebooted. In order to save the certificate so that it is
retained beyond reboot or power cycles, use the following command:
When a client (e.g. web browser) connects to the switch, the client is asked to accept the certificate
and verify that the fields match what is expected. Once BBI access is granted to the client, the BBI
can be used as described in the BLADEOS 6.5 BBI Quick Guide.
