6. Click OK.
MS Internet Explorer displays the following security warning: Information you exchange
with this site cannot be viewed or changed by others. ....
7. Click View Certificate.
8. Check the issuer specifications and the period of validity. These must be identical to those
of the self-signed SSL server certificate you previously generated. Click Details.
9. Scroll to the end of the list. Click Fingerprint.
The complete fingerprint is displayed as a hexadecimal numeral in the lower window. Com-
pare this numeral with the hexadecimal numeral that was issued when the SSL server cer-
tificate was created with the CLI command.
If the two fingerprints (hexadecimal numerals) are identical:
10. Click OK.
The security message for the server certificate is displayed again.
11. Click View Certificate once more.
The first certificate dialog is displayed again. If the issuer specifications and the fingerprint
were correct:
12. Click Install Certificate....
The Certificate Management Import Wizard is started. Click Next until Finish is displayed.
Click Finish.
13. Press OK to confirm the window displayed.
14. Click Ye s in the security message for the server certificate.

The following steps 7 through 13 are only necessary the first time. Once you
have installed the certificate successfully, Internet Explorer automatically
checks the server’s fingerprint.
You should always perform steps 7 through 13, however, when Internet Explorer
issues the specified security warning in step 5.
If you do not import the certificate, Internet Explorer re-issues the security warn-
ing shown in step 5 every time you start the WBM with HTTPS.
Steps 10 through 12 are not mandatory. If you want to replace the certificate
anyway, importing is unnecessary.

If the two fingerprints are identical, the certificate is unchanged and you can ac-
cept it. If the two fingerprints are not identical, an attempted attack has probably
occurred. Appropriate measures should be taken.
