Use CA-signed certificates

You can obtain and import CA-signed certificates for secure access to the management system hosting the DE Plugin for vCenter.

Using CA-signed certificates is a three-step procedure.

  1. Step 1: Complete a CSR file
    You must first generate a certificate signing request (CSR) file, which identifies your organization and the host system where the DE Plugin for vCenter is running.
  2. Step 2: Submit CSR file
    After you create a certificate signing request (CSR) file, send it to a Certificate Authority (CA).
  3. Step 3: Import management certificates
    After you receive signed certificates from the Certificate Authority (CA), import the certificates into the host system where the DE Plugin for vCenter is installed.
