Managing certificates
VTS uses X.509 certificate-based Secure Sockets Layer (SSL) communication between the user’s
browser and the VTS web server. When VTS initially starts up, it automatically generates a self-
signed certificate. If you decide not to use a certificate approved by a Certificate Authority, no
further action is required.
If you use a self-signed certificate for SSL, your browser may display a certificate warning when you
access VTS. To prevent this warning, use a certificate signed by a Certificate Authority (CA).
