SSL Certificates

The KX II uses the Secure Socket Layer (SSL) protocol for any
encrypted network traffic between itself and a connected client. When
establishing a connection, the KX II has to identify itself to a client using
a cryptographic certificate.
It is possible to generate a Certificate Signing Request (CSR) and install
a certificate signed by the Certificate Authority (CA) on the KX II. The CA
verifies the identity of the originator of the CSR. The CA then returns a
certificate containing its signature to the originator. The certificate,
bearing the signature of the well-known CA, is used to vouch for the
identity of the presenter of the certificate.
When a self signed certificate is created, the KX II date and time are
used to create the validity period. If the KX II date and time are not
accurate, the certificate's valid from - to range may be incorrect, causing
certificate validation to fail. Make sure your KX II date/time is set
correctly. See Configuring Date/Time Settings (on page 159).
Note: The CSR must be generated on the KX II.
Note: When upgrading firmware, the active certificate and CSR are not
replaced.
To create and install a SSL certificate:
1. Select Security > SSL Certificate.
