Import a Signed Certificate

Uploading a certificate will restart the web service, leading to the termination of the current WebGUI session and temporary unavailability of the web server.

You can import the certificate when the CA responds with a signed certificate. Importing certificates in PEM format is supported. You can convert your DER certificate to PEM format by “openssl x509 -inform der -in certificate.cer -out certificate.pem”. After the certificate has been imported, it is required to reconnect to the SMM2 web.

Generating a self-signed certificate will restart the web service, leading to the termination of the current WebGUI session and temporary unavailability of the web server.

You can also generate a self-signed certificate by filling in the information and clicking on the Generate button on this page.
