Secure Sockets Layer (SSL) Server Certificates

CMC includes a Web server that is configured to use the industry-standard SSL security protocol to transfer encrypted

data over the Internet. Built upon public-key and private-key encryption technology, SSL is a widely accepted technique

for providing authenticated and encrypted communication between clients and servers to prevent eavesdropping

across a network.

SSL allows an SSL-enabled system to perform the following tasks:

• Authenticate itself to an SSL-enabled client.

• Allow the client to authenticate itself to the server.

• Allow both systems to establish an encrypted connection.

This encryption process provides a high level of data protection. CMC employs the 128-bit SSL encryption standard, the

most secure form of encryption generally available for Internet browsers in North America.

The CMC Web server includes a Dell self-signed SSL digital certificate (Server ID). To ensure high security over the

Internet, replace the Web server SSL certificate by submitting a request to CMC to generate a new Certificate Signing

Request (CSR).

At boot time, a new self-signed certificate is generated if:

• A custom certificate is not present
