SSL Certificate Management

Smart 16 IP uses the SSL (Secure Socket Layer) protocol for any encrypted

network traffic between itself and a connected client. When connecting, Smart 16

IP reveals its identity to a client using a cryptographic certificate. This is the same

for all Smart 16 IPs and won't match the network configurations applied to the

card by its user. The certificate's underlying secret key is also used for securing

the SSL handshake. Hence, this is a security risk (but better than no encryption at

all).
