Use this page to generate a certificate signing request (CSR), upload a server certificate to the
iBMC firmware, or view an existing server certificate.
NOTE: You must have Configure iBMC permission to generate or upload a server certificate.
Use the Certificate Management page to generate a certificate signing request (CSR) to send to a
certificate authority (CA). The CSR information is stored on the iBMC firmware.
A CSR is a digital request to a CA for a secure server certificate. Secure server certificates ensure
the identity of a remote system and ensure that information exchanged with the remote system
cannot be viewed or changed by others. To ensure the security for your Dell Remote Management
Controller, it is strongly recommended that you generate a CSR, submit the CSR to a CA, and
upload the certificate returned from the CA.
After the CA approves the CSR and sends you a certificate, you must upload the certificate to the
iBMC firmware. The CSR information stored on the iBMC firmware must match the information
contained in the certificate.
