If you have a RADIUS server on the network and you want to use the TLS
authentication method, you need to upload the certificates to the Bridge.
There are two types of certificates: trusted root certificate and user
certificate. Trusted root certificates are required for TLS with the option
Validate server certificate enabled, while user certificates are mandatory
to TLS.
You need to copy certificates to the computer in which you configure the
Bridge with a Web browser before you can upload them to the Bridge.
You can upload up to 64 trusted root certificates. To upload a trusted root
certificate:
1 Under Trusted root certificate, click Add, and then enter the Upload
Trusted Root Certificate page.
2 In File Name, type the file name manually, or click Browse to select a
trusted root certificate stored on your local computer. Click Open to
upload the certificate.
3 In Description, type a brief description for the certificate. This can help
you identify this specific certificate, if there are other trusted root
certificates on the system.
4 Click Upload.
When a trusted root certificate is uploaded successfully, it appears in the
list on the Certificate Management page.
