The Secure Socket Layer (SSL) feature is used to open an HTTPS session to the
device.
An HTTPS session may be opened with the default certificate that exists on the
device.
Some browsers generate warnings when using a default certificate, since this
certificate is not signed by a Certification Authority (CA). It is best practice to have
a certificate signed by a trusted CA.
To open an HTTPS session with a user-created certificate, perform the following
actions:
1. Generate a certificate.
2. Request that the certificate be certified by a CA.
3. Import the signed certificate into the device.
By default, the switch contains a certificate that can be modified.
