server.crt (SSL Certificates)
The TeraStation sends the file to a computer, and the computer uses it to perform encryption. The TeraStation
receives the encrypted data and uses server.key (the private key) to decrypt the data.
In SSL, this key contains the server certificate, and depending on your computer environment, a check may be
performed to determine the trustworthiness of the certificate. The server certificate included in the TeraStation's
default settings was created by Buffalo, and in some cases the security certificate warning message may appear in
your browser or another security software. Disregard this message and continue.
