11. The principal disadvantage of Self Signed certificates is that when you access the CCM command mode via the Web Browser Interface the browser will display a message which warns that the connection might be unsafe Note however that even though this message is displayed communication will still be encrypted and the message is merely a warning that the CCM is not recognized and that you may not be connecting to the site that you intended Signed certificates must be created via an outside security service e g VeriSign Thawte etc and then uploaded to the CCM unit to verify the user s identity In order to use Signed certificates you must contact an appropriate security service and set up your domain name server to recognize the name that you will assign to the CCM unit e g service wti com Once a signed certificate has been created and uploaded to the CCM you will then be able to access command mode without seeing the warning message that is normally displayed for Self Signed certificate access WEB ACCESS eth0 IPv4 HTTP 1 Enable 2 Port HTTPS Enable Port 443 Certificates Common Name State or Province Locality Country Email Address Organization Name Organizational Unit 15 Export Server Private Key Create CSR 16 Import Server Private Key View CSR 17 Harden Web Security Medium Import CRT 18 TLS Mode TLSv1 Enter lt CR gt to change XESC to return to previous menu
