Generate a Self-Signed Certificate

The library can generate a self-signed certificate to encrypt SSL/TLS traffic.

A self-signed certificate is secure, but will require you to manually tell the browser to trust the certificate before you can view the login screen. To eliminate this browser security exception, you can install a certificate signed by a certifying authority (CA) (see Install a Third-Party Signed Certificate).
  1. Click Configuration in the left navigation area of the GUI.
