SSL Settings

Secure Sockets Layer (SSL) is a protocol for managing the security of data transmission over the
Internet. It provides encryption, authentication, and message integrity services. SSL is widely used
for secure communication to a web server.
Certificate/Private key combinations can be obtained from an external Certificate Authority (CA)
and uploaded into the unit. Self-signed certificates with associated private key can be generated
by the device server itself.
Note: The blue text
a user-specified name.

Certificate and Key Generation

The PremierWave can generate self signed certificates and their corresponding keys. This can be
done for both the rsa and dsa certificate formats. Certificates can be identified on the
PremierWave by a name provided at generation time.

Description
Select the bit length of the new key:
 512
 768
1024

Using a larger Bit Size takes more time to generate the key. Approximate times are:
 1 second for a 512 bit RSA key
 1 second for a 768 bit RSA key
1 second for a 1024 bit RSA key

 2 seconds for a 512 bit DSA key
 2 seconds for a 768 bit DSA key
 20 seconds for a 1024 bit DSA key
Note: Some SSH clients require RSA host keys to be at least 1024 bits long. This
device generates keys up to 2048 bits long.
