Step 5: Installing certificates in a browser

If you are operating as your own certificate authority, installing a certificate signed by
your own CA will still cause a security warning to appear when customers open the
CN3000's Login page. This occurs because your CA is not part of the group of well-
known certificate authorities included with most browsers. This means customers will
get a security warning when establishing the SSL connection with the Login page.
To eliminate this warning message, customers must add the public key certificate for
your CA to the list maintained by their browsers.

Internet Explorer

To eliminate the certificate warning message in Internet Explorer 6.0, do the following:
1. On the Tools menu, click Internet Options.
2. Click the Content tab.
3. Click Certificates. The Certificates window opens.
