Certificates overview

Introduction
There are two kinds of certificates:
• Trusted certificates
• Identity certificates
Trusted certificates
Trusted certificates allow the controller to recognize Root and intermediate certificates that may
be sent by :
• The mail server, with secure communication via HTTPS, when configuring or using it for
System administrator password recovery.
• The proxy server, during communication with the back office, when Remote Service
communication is enabled.
Identity certificates
Identity certificates are required to allow a browser to establish a HTTPS connection with the
controller for access to the settings editor.
