Obtain a Custom SSL Certificate and Private Key Using OpenSSL Toolkit
This procedure is a simplified description on how to obtain a custom SSL Certificate using the OpenSSL toolkit. Your requirement to use a temporary self-signed or a certificate authority-signed certificate should be determined by your site administrator or security officer. In the event you do need to obtain a custom SSL certificate (temporary self-signed or certificate authority-signed), you can follow these example OpenSSL command-line instructions below.
Note:
Oracle ILOM does not require you to use OpenSSL to generate SSL certificates. OpenSSL is used in this procedure for demonstration purposes only. Other tools are available for generating SSL certificates.Note:
If further OpenSSL instructions are required to generate the SSL certificate, you should consult the user documentation provided with the OpenSSL toolkit.
