Protecting Communication Paths via a Device Certificate
This machine can protect its communication paths and establish encrypted communications using SSL/TLS, IPsec, or IEEE 802.1X.
To use these functions, it is necessary to create and install a device certificate for the machine in advance.
The following types of device certificate can be used:
Self-signed certificate created by the machine
Certificate issued by a certificate authority
The administrator is required to manage the expiration of certificates and renew the certificates before they expire.
The administrator is required to check that the issuer of the certificate is valid.
