You must have the appropriate user privileges to access SSL Certificates.
NOTE
SSL Certificates does not generate signed certificates and keys. You can generate a certificate
signing request (CSR), but the signed certificates and keys managed by SSL Certificates must be
signed by a certificate authority (CA) and must be stored in an accessible location. Certificates and
keys are added to SSL Certificates by cutting and pasting the certificate and key file contents
obtained from a certificate authority into SSL Certificates.
You can configure SSL certificates preferences from the Options dialog box. For step-by-step
instructions, refer to “Configuring SSL certificates preferences” on page 164.
You can import the SSL certificates and keys during discovery from SSL-capable products on the
Discover Setup - IP dialog box. For step-by-step instructions, refer to “Defining global setting
preferences” on page 60.
