Introduction

This document describes how to use the TelePresence Management Suite (TMS) tool in order to configure the
certificate used by the TMS application when it initiates outbound connections. If the TMS server is a part of
a domain, then the certificate creation option might not be visible on the TMS tool.

Prerequisites

Requirements

Cisco recommends that you have:

TMS installed and accessible through HTTP and HTTPS

•

Access to restart the Internet Information Services (IIS) server

•

Admin rights for the user

•

Access to the Transport Layer Security (TLS) certificate that must be installed

•

Component Used

The information in this document is based on TMS Versions14.3.2, 14.2.2, and 14.5.

All screenshots in this document are from the TMS Version 14.5 interface. Certificates for other versions can
also be generated with the same procedure.

The information in this document was created from the devices in a specific lab environment. All of the
devices used in this document started with a cleared (default) configuration. If your network is live, make sure
that you understand the potential impact of any command.

Configure

When you want to have complete TLS communication from the TMS server and you want TMS to use a TLS
certificate, you must configure it with the TMS tools.
