14.3.2. Upload
http://192.168.0.235/setup/loadcer.shtm
If you wish to generate a certificate that is not linked to Scannex you can create a
certificate and private key and upload them.
You can use a tool like OpenSSL to create a stand alone certificate, or one that is signed by
a self-signed root CA, and upload the results to the ip.buffer.
You
must
upload both a certificate and matching key! If the key does not
match you will not be able to use the HTTPS or SSL server services.
Since the private key is uploaded in unencrypted PEM or DER format you
should make sure the link between the PC and ip.buffer is secure and not
being sniffed. A key compromise will invalidate any imagined security!
Note: when using HTTPS the PC will usually cache the connection and newly uploaded
certificates will not be visible to the PC until you restart the browser.
14.3.3. Download server certificate
http://192.168.0.235/lua/x509-00-02-ae-xx-xx-xx.pem.crt
Downloads a file containing the public certificate for the TLS/SSL PKI certificate.
The downloaded file will contain comments about the ip.buffer as well as the certificate.
14.3.4. Download SSH publickey
http://192.168.0.235/lua/ssh-00-02-ae-xx-xx-xx.pub
Downloads an OpenSSH compatible publickey file that can be loaded into your SSH server
for 'publickey' authentication of the buffer.
