Setting Up an SSL Certificate
Having an X.509 digital certificate ensures that both parties in an SSL
connection are who they say they are.
To obtain a certificate for Dominion PX, create a Certificate Signing
Request (CSR) and submit it to a certificate authority (CA). After the CA
processes the information in the CSR, it provides you with an SSL
certificate, which you must install on the Dominion PX device.
Note: See Forcing HTTPS Encryption (on page 72) for instructions on
forcing users to employ SSL when connecting to Dominion PX.
A CSR is not required in either of the following scenarios:
