Request and import a CA-signed certificate
Description of the overall procedure to request and import a CA-signed certificate
Introduction
By default the first certificate delivered for the use of HTTPS is an Océ self-signed certificate.
To ensure a fully trustful authentication, you can request and import a certificate delivered by a
Certification Authority (CA-signed certificate).
Information about certificates
When you generate a CA-signed certificate request on a controller:
• A new private key is created: this key stays in the controller
• The certificate request containing the public key is created. Send it to the Certification
Authority.
