Files you create for SSL and SSH security
Use the APC Security Wizard to create the following components of an SSL
and SSH security system:
• The server certificate for the Battery Management System, if you want
the benefits of authentication that such a certificate provides.You can
create either of the following types of server certificate:
– A server certificate signed by a custom CA root certificate also
created with the APC Security Wizard. Use this method if your
company or agency does not have its own Certificate Authority and
you do not want to use an external Certificate Authority to sign the
server certificate.
– A server certificate signed by an external Certificate Authority. This
Certificate Authority can be one that is managed by your own
company or agency or can be one of the commercial Certificate
Authorities whose CA root certificates are distributed as part of a
browser’s software.
• A certificate signing request containing all the information required for
a server certificate except the digital signature. You need this request if
you are using an external Certificate Authority.
• A CA root certificate.
