Sharing Certificates
AirDefense has a Central Management feature that allows you to monitor more than one appliance. In
this situation, there will be a master appliance and a slave appliance. In order for this scenario to take
place, you will need to share certificates between the master and the slave appliance.
There are two scenarios to sharing certificates after adding a slave appliance:
• Certificates on either the master appliance or slave appliance are in the default state.
• Certificates have been modified, changed, or imported on either appliance, and have been signed by
a Certificate Authority (CA).
Sharing Certificates not in Default State
Sharing certificates not in the default state involves some extra steps. The following conditions must be
met:
• The slave appliance must first be added using Add Devices under the Menu
• Both servers must be able to successfully ping each other
• Both master and slave must be running the same build
• The user name and passwords are entered correctly in Share certificate window, and the Alias field
has the slave appliance IP address.
