SSL Certificates

For the system to provide access to the server via SSL / TLS, the use of SSL certificates is required.

 

The system provides a standard, self-signed certificate, which must be replaced with your certificate.

 

The certificate files are located in the HTTP subfolder in the case of the VMS Server, or in the installation root folder in the case of the other services (Analytics, LPRl, Mobile Camera, Live Witness, etc...).

 

SSLCertificate_Files

 

SSLCert: Certificate file in PEM format.

SSLKey: Private key file in PEM format, without encryption.

SSLRootCert: Root certificate file in PEM format.

 

The system only supports files in PEM format. To check whether a certificate file is in PEM format, open the file in Notepad:

 

SSLCertificate_PEMFormat

 

SSLCertificate_PEMFormatKey

 

The certificate file should contain the text -----BEGIN CERTIFICATE-----
The private key file should contain the text -----BEGIN RSA PRIVATE KEY----- or corresponding to the format of your key.

 

Replace the SSLKey file with your private key file. The private key file is generated when you request a new certificate.

Replace the SSLCert file with your certificate file.

If you don't have a root certificate, just copy the SSLCert file to SSLRootCert.
