ATTENTION
If you start the MCG 3100 for the very first time without a valid license, errors
occur until you upload a valid license and restart the server. You must always
restart the MCG 3100 after you add or modify the license file.
Manage TLS certificates
A Public Key Infrastructure (PKI) uses Transport Layer Security (TLS)
certificates to provide server authentication and private communication.
With a PKI, the communication between the mobile clients and the
MCG 3100 server is secure.
Perform the following tasks to configure the PKI:

Enroll with a Certificate Authority

Some CAs, such as VeriSign or Entrust, charge a fee for their services.
Others, such as CACert or RapidSSL, provide free or low-cost solutions.
As an alternative to using a commercial CA, you can build your own. For
example, Microsoft Exchange Server includes tools that enable you to
build a CA server that is exclusive to your organization.
