Nortel Networks 4050 User Manual

570 Chapter 11 Managing certificates

320818-A

 

To use the encryption capabilities of the Nortel SNAS 4050, you must add a key 
and certificate that conforms to the X.509 standard.

The key and certificate apply to the cluster. It does not matter whether you connect 
to the Management IP address (MIP) or Real IP address (RIP) of a Nortel 
SNAS 4050 device in order to manage Secure Socket Layer (SSL) certificates. 
When you add a key and certificate to one Nortel SNAS 4050 device in the 
cluster, the information is automatically propagated to all other devices in the 
cluster.

The Nortel SNAS 4050 can support the use of up to 1500 certificates. However, 
only one server certificate can be mapped to a portal server at any one time. For 
information about mapping a certificate to the portal server, see 

.

If you ran the quick setup wizard during initial setup, a test certificate has been 
installed and mapped to the Nortel SNAS 4050 portal.
