/private.pem
Private key – this key should be kept secret. The key is
generated on first boot, if one is not already present.
/request.pem
Most recently generated CSR – this is not secret.
/cert.pem
Current signed certificate – this is not secret.

•
Deleting /cert.pem will cause the unit to regenerate a self-signed
certificate on the next reboot.
•
Deleting /private.pem will cause the unit to regenerate all three files on
the next reboot.
•
If the IP address of the gateway changes after the first boot, then the
certificate will be incorrect (it will refer to the old IP address). Either a new
self-signed certificate should be generated through the Web User
Interface, or (if a programmatic approach is required), the files
/request.pem and / cert.pem should be deleted via FTP. These will be
regenerated upon the next reboot.
